Eastern Catholic Churches

Connected Sites: 14

The Eastern Catholic Churches are autonomous, self-governing particular churches in full communion with the Bishop of Rome, the Pope. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Catholic_Churches for the included churches. There's overlap with Syriac Churches, but not all Syriac Churches are Eastern Catholic (and vice versa).

    This was a little surprising, but the Maronite cathedral, Catedral de Nuestra Señora de Balvanera y Santuario de San Charbel is right in the historic center, at Correo Mayor #5. The building was also part of a Conceptionist convent, the Convento de Jesús de la Penitencia. The church is the seat of an Eparchy.
