Brief History : While Fr. P.J. Joseph was the parish priest of Our Lady of Lourdes Parish, Gundri, he used to visit all the surrounding villages with the F.M.M sisters and Basavanapuram was one of them. Since the people of this place eagerly responded to his pastoral and evangelization efforts, it was made a separate parish in 1984 with Fr. P.J. Joseph as its parish priest. In 2007 FMM sisters left this parish and Assisi Sisters of Mary Immaculate started their community with a hospital. Later in 2003 Brothers of St. Michael started their formation house (Pre Novitiate) here.
