Eastern Catholicism in Belgium refers to various forms of Eastern Catholicism present in Belgium, mostly immigrant communities. There are several churches where eastern rites are celebrated, often bi-ritual Latin-Eastern churches.
Chaldean Catholics edit
As of 2014, there were some 1500 Chaldean Catholics living in Brussels.[1] In 2016, Belgium as a whole had around 3000 Chaldeans.[2] In February 2024, a married Chaldean man was ordained to the priesthood in Belgium, the first Belgian-Chaldean priest to be ordained in Belgium itself.[3]
Byzantine Catholics edit
There is a notable community of Ukrainian Greek Catholics in Antwerp, who celebrate Divine Liturgy in the Saint-Michael and Saint-Peter Church and St. Andrew's Church.[4] They are under the jurisdiction of the Eparchy of Saint Vladimir the Great of Paris.[5]
There is also a Melkite Catholic parish in Brussels.[6]
Chevetogne Abbey edit
The Chevetogne Abbey is a Benedictine abbey in Belgium that mixes Eastern and Western traditions.[7]
