From your lips to Godās ears.This is fantastic news:
I pray that our new Holy Father continues the good work laid down by his predecessor in further warming the ties between the Eastern and Western churches.
I also pray that we see him celebrate a Divine Liturgy sometime in the near future.
It is a pretty common feature of the Papal Liturgy to have both Latin and Byzantine Subdeacons and Deacons.Greetings,
I know that some were concerned (not anyone on this thread but what Iāve read is some blogs) with the Gospel only being sung in Greek, but as Jimmy Akin pointed out in his blog that, The Gospel will be proclaimed in Greek, as at the highest solemnities, to show that the universal Church is made up of the great traditions of the East and the West.
Iām no liturgical expert, but Iām assuming that during a solemnity, such as the case yesterday being the Solemnity of St. Joseph, it is proper or even customary, to sing the Gospel in Greek as per the Roman rite. This of course makes sense to me since the language of the Gospels is Greek.
If my assumtion is wrong please let me know
ZP
Hmmm ā¦ thatās a, well, interesting thing to be concerned about.
WOOOWWWWWW!!! Thatās great!!! Actually, I am one of those also hoping that, one day, ( hoping in my lifetimeThis is fantastic news:

If you are, may I know where you worship ( with Byzantine Catholic Rite ) ? I really want to get the feel of worshipping God through Eastern Rite .
Come on Peter! We all know that the New Testament was originally written in Latin
I am not aware of a Catholic Byzantine Rite Liturgy in Singapore, but the Holy Resurrection Orthodox Cathedral of the Metropolitanate of Singapore and South Asia (under the Ecumenical Patriarch) currently operates out of the Catholic Archdiocesan Education Centre. If you introduce yourself nicely, they may permit you to attend Liturgy, but not to receive communion.Hello Eugeneā¦ Are you from Singapore ?

Apparently, there is a small community of the UGCC, but I donāt have any more information in that regard. If there were any such information, I would have pursued it and shared it with you, for I too have an interest in the Eastern rites.By the wayā¦ Just one more questionā¦ Is there any Eastern Catholic community in Singapore ?

Iām from New York, and Iām afraid Iāve never been to Singapore. The way we worship is in the Eastern Rite and Liturgy with similar differences as youād find between the different Orthodox Churches. The difference is that weāre in communion with the seat of Peter and Paul. I pray that one day the Church will once again breathe with both lungs, but itās not that way just yet. I wish you Godās blessing in your search!Hello Eugeneā¦ Are you from Singapore ? If you are, may I know where you worship ( with Byzantine Catholic Rite ) ?

I hope and pray The Authorized King James actuallyā¦
