Melkite Greek Catholic Church Information Center Efforts for Reunification of the Antiochian Patriarchate - Melkite Catholic relations with the Antiochian Orthodox by His Beatitude, the Regretted, Maximos V, Patriarch / Batriyark of the cities of Antioch, Alexandria and Jerusalem, of Cilicia, Syria, Iberia, Arabia Mesopotamia, Pentapolis, Ethiopia, of all of Egypt and the entire East, Father of Fathers, Pastor of Pastors, Bishop of Bishops, the Thirteenth of The Holy Apostles

During the time of His Beatitude, the Regretted, Maximos V, Patriarch / Batriyark , the Holy Synod was seeking ways to reunite with the Greek Orthodox Patriarch / Batriyark of Antioch, Ignatios, so that our Antiochene Church throughout the world may be one, and united with the Pope. They were following the teaching of His Holiness Ioannes Paulus II (John Paul II) that the solution to the reunion of East and West lies in the understanding of the undivided Church of the first millennium.

During the Twentyfirst Ecumenical Council also named Council of Vatican II, His Beatitude, the Regretted, Maximos V, Patriarch / Batriyark spoke on behalf of the "absent brother", the great Orthodox Church.

Melkite Greek Catholic Church Information Center is dedicated to my cousins: Bucky (Richard C. Liles), Shirley (Shirley Jean Liles Buck), and Donna (Donna Bertha Liles Campbell).

O God of all spirits and of all flesh, who have destroyed death, overcome the devil, and given life to the world: grant, O Lord, to the souls of your servants Bucky and Shirley, who has departed from this life, that it may rest in a place of light, in a place of happiness, in a place of peace, where there is no pain, no grief, no sighing. And since You are a gracious God and the Lover of Mankind, forgive him/her every sin he/she has committed by thought, or word, or deed, for there is not a man who lives and does not sin : You alone are without sin, your righteousness is everlasting, and your word is true. You are the Resurrection and the Life, and the repose of your departed servants Bucky and Shirley. O Christ our God, and we send up glory to You, together with your eternal Father and your all-holy, good and life-giving Spirit, now and always and for ages upon ages. Amen.
