Are there any devotions in Eastern Catholicism similar or different to the ones in Roman Catholicism such as the Rosary, Divine Mercy, Immaculate Heart and Sacred Heart?
 
I don’t think Eastern Catholics would use that type of terminology, at least not in the same sense. Keep in mind, a lot of Eastern Catholics do pray some of the devotions that would be more associated with the Latin church however, they have their own spirituality, their own practices, and their own traditions.
 
In the Maronite Church, there is a devotion of dedicating the 22nd of every month to Saint Charbel. To participate in the devotion, either light a bowl of candles (you may put the candles on any circular surface) in front of an icon of the saint, or visit your local Maronite church’s Saint Charbel shrine.
 
Excellent that is the sort of thing I was looking for. I watched a movie about Saint Charbel just before Christmas was very interesting! Thanks!
