Note: Links to on-line parish directories of our Orthodox brethren are here For years, The Unofficial Directory of Eastern Catholic Churches in the US served as a centralized source for location data on Eastern and Oriental Catholic parishes. Regretably, a few years ago, it ceased to be updated and, over time, its usefulness declined. With upgrading and expansion of ByzCath, an opportunity arose to develop a new, improved, on-line directory. Presently, we are still compiling it; so, please be patient if your parish isn't yet listed. Sources and Reliability of the Data Every effort is made to assure the accuracy of information presented, but limitations persist. The Official Catholic Directory, eparchial and parish websites, and other on-line and print resources were consulted in compiling the entry data. Ongoing, we depend on our users to identify errors, provide missing information, and update us. Schedules should be verified in advance, particularly for Feasts and seasonal considerations.
Acknowledgements The Directory would not have been possible without: ByzCath's generosity as its host; the assistance of all - especially members of the ByzCath Forum - who supplied information or permitted use of photographs; Sigrid & Radek Suski, developers of SOBI2, the software on which the Directory was built; and members of the SOBI2 Community Forum. To date (2009-11-23), the following listings are complete:
|
By Church (546/444 ) All active Eastern Catholic parishes and missions, listed by Church sui iuris |
By Location (538/135 ) All Eastern Catholic parishes and missions (active and historical), listed by locale |

Behold! The Wood of the Cross!
Save Your people, O Lord, and bless Your inheritance. Grant victory to Your Church over her enemies, and protect Your people by Your Cross.
Troparion of the Cross
Wisdom from the Church Fathers
| When despondency seizes us, let us not give in to it. Rather, fortified and protected by the light of faith, let us with great courage say to the spirit of evil: "What are you to us, you who are cut off from God, a fugitive for Heaven, and a slave of evil? You dare not do anything to us: Christ, the Son of God, has dominion over us and over all. Leave us, you thing of bane. We are made steadfast by the uprightness of His Cross. Serpent, we trample on your head." St. Seraphim of Sarov |
