How might I find Eastern Rite churches in my diocese?

In defense of the OP’s faux-pas…

I visited St. Louis two years ago and was looking to see if there was an Eastern church to attend there. The Latin Archdiocese of St. Louis listed Eastern Rite parishes in the Diocese right on their website. To me, it seemed as if these parishes were under the jurisdiction of the Archdiocese of St. Louis, something I knew to be false.

I don’t know if this was something done by accident or deliberate, but it was certainly confusing and erroneous.

**Well, in fairness, the site might have intended only in conveying information about Eastern Catholic Churches in the vicinity.

One Latin diocesan site lists the Melkite parish and its deacons as “Rev. Mr.” even though like their Orthodox counterparts, they are proper “Fr. Deacon”.**

Most Roman Catholics are unaware of the Eastern Rites, let alone their constituent churches and alternate titling systems…
