Eastern/Oriental Catholic Media Links (Audio, Video, Books...)

[Woodstock]

Links to resources on or about the Eastern or Oriental Catholic Churches.

Podcasts, books, Youtube videos, CDs, parish websites, magazine articles, whatever you have that shares the Eastern and Oriental Catholic faith for those at any stage of the journey.

Excellent idea, Woodstock! Here are a few Melkite Greek Catholic links I’ve collected over the past several months:

Theological Book Service - sells a number of Melkite Catholic catechetical and devotional resources, including iconography (search through the “Melkite Eparchy Educational Services” and “God With Us” menus on the left-hand side of the page)

Madonna House Publications - sells a number of titles by Archbishop Joseph Raya (of Blessed Memory), former Melkite Archbishop of Akko, Haifa, Nazareth and all Galilee.

Our Lady of Redemption Melkite Catholic Church - parish located in Warren, Michigan, pastored by Archimandrite Philip Raczka

Melkite Catholic Eparchy of Newton (Massachusetts, USA) - official webpage of the Melkite Greek Catholic Church in the United States

Melkite Greek Catholic Church Information Center - unofficial website with tons of information about Melkite spirituality, history, and liturgy
