Beyond Rome
3. Vatican II & Eastern Catholic Churches
This week Simone Rizkallah and James O’Reilly talk to Canon Lawyer Nicole Delaney on Orientalium Ecclesiarum, a short decree from the Second Vatican Council on the Eastern Churches!
This decree was the inspiration behind the Eastern Code of Canon Law—we do realize that inviting a canon lawyer to join us as our first special guest was a very Roman thing to do!
Beyond Rome is available on Apple, Spotify, YouTube, and a variety of other media platforms!
Show notes:
3:35— Eastern Catholics are not Eastern Orthodox
5:11—Churches are not rites —language matters
14:34—It's complicated—legal and pastoral challenges
18:52—Valid but illegal confirmations
20:46—The message of OE is Be okay with who you are: An Eastern Catholic!
