They claim millions of members worldwide, but they don’t really tell us who they are and what they do.
I am on the fence about this organization. They say, “Our millions of members include thousands of U.S. religious [sic]. Here are a few:” – and who is the very first person they choose to list out of hundreds of names? Why, it’s sedevacantist cult leader “Bishop” Daniel Dolan.
 
No, the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church is one of 22 sui iuris Eastern Catholic Churches in communion with Rome. They are as Catholic as the Pope is.
And look at all the people questioning the Catholicism of the Pope! 😃

ELIZIUM23, I really do hope that you are right but I cant ignore the above post… not all Churches that Claim they are Catholic ARE truely Catholic… I know the sedevacantist position on the Catholic Church, and I dont want any part with it…

saying that I hope that we are all wrong and that ELIZIUM23 is right, that they are genuine Roman Catholics…

I have emailed the Parish priest, (Re. Father Ivan Kolodiy) asking him if he is Roman Catholic, but nothing back as of yet…(I havent phoned sorry)…

Maybe someone can google him for me find out if he is Good (RC). the research skills of a mentally ill are not that good. thanks.

P.S. I am based in the UK, if anyone knows any UK websites offering roman Catholic Masses please let me know… there was that previous poster, which included a US website, Im worried thinking it wont take UK credit cards because I dont live in the US.

thanks
 
Here are two websites: bvmartyrshrine.com/ and bvmartyrshrine.com/NewsletterDecember%202010.pdf. It looks legit to me, unless anyone has any other information to share.
hello moderator,

thankyou for your intervention, much needed thankyou.

Just to make sure we understand each other… :

You are saying that the link in my original post (Opening Thread) is verified as being legit and all good with the Roman Catholic Pontiff… (I hope this is what you are saying and I am extremely happy if this is the case)… you provided links to a Ukrainian Catholic Church… thankyou 🙂

I will continue to use them as I find their process extremely useful…

Can you please confirm my thoughts with yourself…? thanks

thanks to everyone who “(name removed by moderator)utted” into this thread…

love you all dearly, and will be praying for you all…

thanks

From the information gathered by myself and malphono, it appears they’re all right. You can always check with your diocese for confirmation.

Seeing the Evidence Malphono I dont need to goto my Parish thanks for the links… I fully believe you/ it…

Can you confirm that your link relates to the same Church in the Opening Thread? I suppose that is my point… Apologies if we are going around in circles a little here…lol

Best Wishes,

I only came into this after seeing the moderator’s post, and followed her lead. What I can say is that the information in the moderator’s post and in the links both she and I provided, relates to the UGCC parish and shrine in Winnipeg, and we know from the CCCB and the Archeparchy of Winnipeg that it is indeed legitimate.

Frankly I’ve no idea if the outfit mentioned in the OP itself is legitimate. But now that the status of the parish and shrine are clear, I suppose you could just contact them directly and avoid the middleman.
 
Hi there People,

I have another problem, since I got some answers from this forum, my ideas are under scrutiny again.

Could you please confirm that www.cnewa.org is legit… (I know it is but…) having names of famous Catholic Cadinals and a decent website is not enough for some people. So how do I silence the critics in my life? The problem is I live in the UK and I think this is an American Website, so not a lot people know about it… I think I may have seen them on EWTN…?

I recently discovered the correct missionary arm here in the UK is missio.org.uk. Do you suggest I use them in future since I am based in the UK or Do you think its still okay to use CNEWA.ORG?

Thanks in advance…

Awaiting your reply. Thanks

Founded by Pope Pius XI in 1926, CNEWA works for, through and with the Eastern Catholic churches to identify needs and implement solutions.
Easy answer: stop talking to people who are stubbornly ignorant about Eastern Catholic Churches. There are many such Latin Catholics out there.

Thankyou Elizium, You are right, I appreciate your rebuke. Im on meds so I get swayed easy, I need my fellow Catholics to back me up from time to time.

I have these people in my life keep pushing me back, but I am thankful for your support.

thankyou, stay blessed.

Go inside the office of the church and ask if they are in communion with the Pope and if they have a picture of Pope Francis, then its legit
Hello;
sorry to bother you, I need some help…

I bought some Masses on the internet thinking the website was under Rome’s Jurisdiction, but when I got the Mass cards through the post it said “Byzantine Rite, Greek Catholic Church UKRAINE”… (based in Texas America)…

Is this still okay? Will the Masses be the Same? I spent too much money already for this not to be Catholic or wrong in some way…

here is a link to the website: philomena.org/mass_requests.asp You can understand why I got confused - they talk about the Rosary/ Scapular/ Masses etc…

Your urgent reply is greatly appreciated…

Thanks

Uh oh… my parish hasn’t taken delivery of new Francis portraits yet. There is a row of Benedict photos in my boss’s office. Are we in trouble?
