The “Kandeesangal”known in Jacobite church as Mar sapor ,Mar Afroth.
The Akapparampu Jacobite Church is named after them. It is a very old church.(A.D 825)
The Angamali Jacobite syrian church is also in their name.
Mar sapor’s tomp is in Marthamariam Orthodox church ,Tevalakara.
The Jacobite consider them as their own saints and believe that they came from the Persian branch of Jacobite Church. There is another story which says Mar Sabor is the guru of Kadamattattu kattanar .Most historians believe that they were Nestorian Christians.
Their is a church under Syro-Malabar Church in Kothanallor . The church’s name is Gerwasis Porthasis Church. The church is known in the locality as Kandeesangal Church.
Are they another name for kandesangal?
Could anybody provide more information in this regards?
