St. Ignatius of Antioch Maronite Catholic Church

St. Ignatius of Antioch Maronite Catholic Church is a parish of the Syriac Maronite Patriarchal Church of Antioch, a self-governing Eastern Catholic Church which has always been in full communion with the Roman Pontiff. While completely Catholic we have our own hierarchy and clergy (bishops, priests, and deacons), operate under a separate Code of Canon Law called the Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches, and have a different liturgical calendar (Holy and Feast Days) and lectionary. We invite everyone to come worship with us any Sunday and see the richness and beauty of the Maronite Divine Liturgy (Mass). All Catholics may fulfill their Sunday obligation with us.
