  • The Byzantine churches (which includes Melkites) celebrate the Liturgy behind the iconostasis. However, since this was a Maronite Liturgy (celebrated at a Melkite church!), the Liturgy was conducted in the Maronite tradition, which does not have an iconostasis.

  • Maronite liturgy at a Melkite Church? Melkites are Greek Catholics, no?

  • Yes, we are Greek Catholics. The priest from Our Lady of Lebanon Maronite Catholic Church in Waterbury CT, Rev. Naji Kiwan, celebrated the Maronite Liturgy at our church in Waterford CT, and the previous month, our priest, Rev. Edward Kakaty, celebrated the Melkite Liturgy at Our Lady of Lebanon Church.

  • And what? Even Orthodoxy before the split even sent high cases for Rome to decide. Rome was considered the most Orthodox well into the 7th century CE. Only after the Charlamagne debacle and some further inovations was that view somewhat changed. In Antioch it was the 12th century before the Pope of Rome was removed from the list of Orthodox bishops.

  • @stevennewnan and ?

  • @Ettoredipugnar Yes right again but so is Rome since both died and are buried there.

  • @stevennewnan St. Peter was in Antioch first. The Throne of Antioch is called "Twice Blessed " because of St.Peter and St. Paul, St. Peter belongs to all Christians.

  • of course this is not Orthodox

  • @gmassad Still kind of confused. Maronites are more or less Lebanese Catholic, not Roman Catholic though in full communion with the pope. Melkites are different, eh? I have a Melkite church handbook, two different ones actually. Oddly enough I was baptized at 'Our Lady of Lebanon' Roman Catholic church in Niagara Falls, NY. This past year I've dove head first into Byzantine & Eastern Catholic literature. Also a ton of Orthodox literature. I love these churches!!!

  • @MLGMajorityFFA Its Catholic but not Roman Catholic, its at a GREEK MELKITE Catholic Church but the service is from the MARONITE Catholic liturgy.

  • @MLGMajorityFFA It is Catholic.

  • is this orthodox?

  • This is really a great video.
