The Archdiocese of Imphal covers the entire State of Manipur. It shares its border with the State of Nagaland to the north, Mizoram to the South, Upper Myanmar to the East and Cachar district of Assam to the West. Manipur, often called the “Land of Jewels”, features a striking geographical division between its lush green hills and fertile valley. The central valley which comprises about 10% of the State's land area is known for its agricultural richness and serves as the political and economic hub of the state. The remaining 90% of the land comprises the hilly terrain that sorrounds the valley. The valley is predominantly inhabited by Meiteis/Meeteis while the hill districts are home to numerous tribal communities.
The Archdiocese of Imphal has currently 113 diocesan clergy, around 75 religious priests and about 384 religious nuns serving in various parishes and institutions. With a number of growing local vocations, the Archdiocese has transitioned from being primarily a receiving diocese in terms of vocations to one that actively supports dioceses, religious congregations and dioceses around the world.
Renowned for its high-quality educational institutions across both urban and rural areas of Manipur, the Archdiocese also provides accessible healthcare services through hospitals and dispensaries, often offering treatment at nominal fees or free of cost. Inspired by the compassion of Jesus Christ, it remains deeply committed to serving the suffering and marginalised with love and care. Its doors are always open to those in need. The Archdiocese also collaborates with various national and international NGOs to further its mission of service to the people of Manipur.
