Brief History : Till 1951 Soosaipuram was a sub-station of Doddagajanur. In 1951 Fr. Nouet started an agricultural colony for the benefit of a backward community which had immigrated from Avanashi taluk. In 1963 it was erected into a separate parish. The new church was built by Fr. Mathew Vakayil and blessed in 1967. The Franciscan Missionaries of Mary opened a convent in Soosaipuram in 1965. They also opened a dispensary and a maternity centre. In 1968 an elementary school was started which later grew up into a middle school and then a Higher Secondary school.
