In the year 1999 a house was purchased at Enikepadu, Vijayawada with the intention of setting up the Provincial House there. Meanwhile, since a study house was of urgent need to recruit and form candidates from Andhra Pradesh and also to accommodate the +2 students in Vijayawada. So it was decided to convert it into a study house after some modification and to shift the Provincial headquarters to Mysore. Fr. Jaimy Moonjely along with 12 students stayed in that house from 28th September 1999 while the modification was going on. The candidates remaining there attended the +2 classes in the Andhra Loyola College in Vijayawada. The house was blessed and inaugurated on 28th November 1999, by his Excellency Rt. Rev. Dr. Marampudi Joji, the Bishop of Vijayawada.

Today the house functions as the head quarters of OASIS, the social work department of the province. Rev. Fr. Sebastian Anthikkad, the director of the Social Service Programs of the province stays at Enikkepadu and monitors various social activities of the association.

Enikepadu is about 11kms away from Vijayawada Railway station on Vijayawda Eluru Road.
