The Divine Liturgy is the Eastern equivalent to the Roman Liturgy. Using the ancient 4th century Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom Melkite Catholics celebrate the traditional Byzantine liturgy. The liturgy is celebrated in English.
Byzantine Catholic Churches are stylistically unique. Icons are a significant and intergal part of the worship space.
Recalling those who died, Melkite Byzantine Catholics celebrate the life of those who have reposed not only through the Funeral Liturgy itself but also at annual memorials.
Melkite Catholics use leaven bread at Divine Liturgy(Mass). The bread is often made by our Deacons right at the Church.
