The poor and the suffering found in him a father and a refuge. Being a strong advocate of education, Mar Thomas started several educational institutions including St. Berchman's College at Changanacherry.

His mortal remains were brought back to Changanacherry on July 25, 1934 and interred in the Metropolitan Cathedral Church.His cause of canonization was taken up in 1983 and he was declared Servant of God on Dec. 13, 1991.   On April 2, 2011, the Holy Father,His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI approved a statement saying that Bishop Kurialachery had lived a life of heroic virtue.

Fr. Mathew was later twice in charge of Lalam new and twice of the filial church at Kannadiurumpu within Palai itself. Here he bestowed special attention to the conversion and uplift of a very backward class called 'Harijens'.   Another area he worked and spent himself for God and his people was education.. He bestowed his fatherly care upon the primary school and middle school at Kannadiurumpu. Later he established an English middle school at Lalam facing almost insurmountable difficulties and hardships. This school later grew into the great girls High School, which is doing wonderful service for the higher education and overall progress of women in the area.   He had become an apostle of devotion to the Sacred Heart to the extent that he used to sign himself under the title 'The servant of Sacred Heart'. He yielded his soul to the loving Heart of Jesus on May 23, 1935.        He dedicated his life to the service of the less privileged and rejected ones of the society. So from the very beginning of the congregation he started orphanages also.
