The Saint Ephrem Ecumenical Research Institute (SEERI) was founded in 1985 as the fruit of the efforts of Rev. Dr. Jacob Thekeparampil. Since then, it became a major centre for teaching Syriac and conducting research on this topic, not only in India but in the whole world. Though founded in 1985, SEERI’s roots are deep within the soil of the ancient Syriac churches that trace their origins to St. Thomas. Among some of its more notable contributions, SEERI has organized and hosted ten World Syriac Conferences. The Harp, the periodical published by SEERI, has already forty volumes. SEERI also has published the monograph series, Moran Etho and Awṣār Ṣlawōto. SEERI is a recognized Research Centre associated with Mahatma Gandhi University and conducts MA and PhD programs. SEERI is the face of the ancient Syriac heritage of South India not only in India but the world. This volume is intended as a modest tribute to this extraordinary enterprise.

Congratulations to the Saint Ephrem Ecumenical Research Institute.
