Summary

[edit]
Description The Melkites are Byzantine Rite Catholics that trace their history to the early Christians of Antioch (today's Antakya in Turkey), where Christianity was introduced by Saint Peter. The Melkite Greek Catholic Church is headed by the Patriarch of Antioch and All the East, and Alexandria and Jerusalem; but is in full communion with the Holy See as part of the Catholic Church. The Melkite community of Aleppo is one of the oldest in the city, the eparchy of Berea (ancient name of Aleppo) dating back to the fourth century (it was elevated to the rank of archeparchy in the sixth century).
