The Kerala Region Latin Catholic Council (KRLCC) is the apex policy making body of Latin Catholics in Kerala. On 24th May 2002 the Latin Catholic Bishops’ Council formally inaugurated KRLCC a larger complimentary body to make the functioning of the Latin Church in Kerala broad based and functionally participatory. One of the main objectives of KRLCC is to conduct scientific studies and to impart training and formation to the priests, religious and laity in view of a common venture for the total and integral development of the community.
