St. Mary's Church is well known as Bengali Cathedral. After building St. Paul's Cathedral, Bishop Daniel Wlison, the first Metropolitan of India, created a Trust Fund, which he named the St. Paul's Cathedral Endowment Fund. The Cathedral Mission started working with the help of the SPG Mission. Rev. Harihar Sandel, a pioneer missionary started worshipping in the Cathedral with a few Christian employees in July 1858 and gradually built a small congregation. It was later decided to build up a separate church for their worship.
