Meaning of Eastern Catholicism | Babel Free

Noun CEFR B2

Definitions

The faith, practices, etc. of the Eastern Catholic Churches.

Examples

“No clergy in the world were more tolerant than those of Russia, but this was naturally more than they could support when added to the wavering faith of the Empress-mother, whose family were Romanists; and they appealed to the Emperor, as the head and sworn protector of orthodoxy, to check the mischievous intrigues which had taken advantage of his absence to undermine the foundations of Eastern Catholicism.”
“He [Czesław Miłosz] lovingly recalls what Polish culture owes to Latin and the cultural unity with the West inspired by the Catholic Church; Russia would have escaped its cultural isolation if it had drawn its faith from Byzantium's Eastern Catholicism.”
“EASTERN CATHOLICISM: The East San Fernando District of the Los Angeles Archdiocesan Council of Catholic Women will hold its final meeting of the year, featuring the Rev. John Azar, who will discuss the background and architecture of the Eastern Catholic Churches.”
