Does anyone know of a website where I can read and follow along all the steps and prayers that take place in a Maronite Catholic Divine Liturgy? Sorta like an online “missal” if you will, of the Divine Liturgy? 🙂
 
Is the entire Divine Liturgy of the Maronite Catholic Church done is Syriac? Is Syriac a dialect of Aramaic? Thanks 🙂

God bless,
ZP
 
syriac=aramaic. Syriac is the greek name given to the aramean language. I imagine that the entire liturgy is not online. There are several anaphoras used by the maronites today. I have only seen the anaphora of St. John on the internet

Very helpful. Thanks!
 
I’m actually looking for a website that has the exact words that are said during the entire Divine Liturgy, like the prayers and responses. I’m wanting to study a bit on the Maronite Rite since my grandparents are from Lebanon. Figured I gotta study up on my Lebanese roots. Maybe someday I’ll be able to attend a Maronite Divine Liturgy, but for now that may be out of the question.

I’m not 100% sure, but I don’t think you’re going to find it on line. I suggest you contact the nearest Maronite parish and ask if they can send you a copy of one of the spiral-bound seasonal books.

I think in another thread you said you were in Utah, but I suppose the closest is a matter of just where in Utah. The Eparchial directory should help you there:

The answer is that there is no such site as the Maronite liturgy changes during the year (there are several different missals/pew books that are used). One site that contains an entire Qorbono (the Maronite Litiurgy) may be found at: faswebdesign.com/ECPA/ then follow the link to Tradition then Worship and from there to the Qorbono. The text is the English version only (there is a little Syriac, but not much).

I didn’t notice that one before, but yes, it has the basic text from the so-called “pew books” although I have no idea why they used the Anaphora of St John, which is one of the longer anaphorae. The standard is the Anaphora of the Twelve Apostles, but of course the structure is the same.

Unless I totally missed it, I didn’t see any Syriac on that site. Just as one is hard pressed to find any Syriac in church, but i digress.

The word ‘suryaya’ is the Syriac word for ‘Syriac’ so it seems that it originates from the syriac itself.

The Anaphora of the Twelve Apostles is somewhere online. I remember seeing it.

Interesting : ) . Thanks I never knew that before.
 
The most complete presentation of the Divine Liturgy of the Maronite Church in english I have seen on the web is located at vineyardofthelord.com/
vineyardofthelord.com/maronitevocations/index.php?option=com_content&view=frontpage&Itemid=151

It includes all of the propers for the whole liturgical year, as well as 6 Anaphorae, the “Mystery of Crowning” (marriage) and the Mystery of Holy Orders, and other hymns and blessings.

Thanks be to God Always,

Danny
