Hey, I being a Eastern Catholic have much respect for the Orthodox, as our beautiful traditions in my liturgy and some of our theology comes from them, and of course the church used to be one. I know the church teaches that there is “No salvation outside the church” but also though baptized in the name of the trinity are technically part of the church without even knowing it. I know we see the Orthodox as having proper apostolistic succession so their sacraments are valid. So my question is, since the Orthodox have valid sacraments and used to be one with us, Can they be saved aswell(I know anyone could be saved from god’s grace, but according to our catechism can they be saved?)

Yes, is the simple answer. Of course. Why not?
