Please visit our
Eastern Dignity
page to read an important message from John Paul II
(The Great) on why conversion is required of the
Latin Church that she may respect and fully
appreciate the dignity of Eastern Christians, and
accept gratefully the spiritual treasures of which
the Eastern Catholic Churches are bearers, to the
benefit of the entire Catholic communion.
We live out our
Catholic faith according to the Byzantine Rite,
which means that our theology, liturgy, spirituality
and canon law are non-Latin or non-Roman, while
maintaining full Eucharistic communion with the
Catholic Church in Rome. More information is
available on our about us
page.

"The memory of the
just is celebrated with hymns of praise, but the
Lord's testimony is enough for thee, O Forerunner,
for thou wast granted to Baptize in the river
Jordan, Him whom thou didst proclaim. Then having
endured great suffering for the Truth, thou didst
rejoice to bring, even to those in Hell, the good
tidings that God had appeared in the flesh, to take
away the sins of the world, and to grant to us all
his great mercy."
