Contact Us | Site Map | Search About the Maronite ChurchThe Maronite Church is one of the oldest churches of Catholicism. It was led by Saint Maron, a priest (350-410 AD) who devotedly taught the Catholic faith, and ministered to many people with his gifts of healing and counsel. The followers of Maron emigrated from Syria to Lebanon, where the Maronite Church flourishes today. Today in the U.S.A. there are two eparchies (dioceses) made up of 85 parishes and institutions.Read more about the Maronites in our Church history section raquo; News and NotesUpcoming Holy Days of Obligation February 9, 2006,St. MaronSee the complete list for 2006 raquo; A Day Of Prayer for The Middle EastHis Holiness Pope Benedict XVI has designated July 23, 2006 as a day of prayer and penance for peace in the Middle East.
