Eastern Catholicism
Eastern Catholicism refers to the branch of the Catholic Church that follows the Eastern Christian traditions and liturgical practices. This includes various Eastern Rite Churches such as the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, Maronite Church, Chaldean Catholic Church, and Melkite Greek Catholic Church. Eastern Catholics maintain their own distinct liturgical rites, theology, and spiritual traditions while remaining in full communion with the Pope in Rome. They often incorporate elements of Eastern Orthodox theology and spirituality into their worship and devotional practices.
