Eastern (Uniate) Bishops Underline Communion With Rome

Sofia, Bulgaria, Novemeber. 8, 2010

In an annual meeting, the Eastern Catholic (Uniate) bishops of Europe underlined their full communion with the Roman Catholic Church as part of the criteria of ecclesiology of the Churches, reports the Catholic website, zenit.org.

This was one of the conclusions of the meeting, which concluded Sunday in Sofia.
The theme of the meeting, which was sponsored by the Council of European Bishops' Conferences (CCEE), was "The ecclesiological Criteria of the Eastern Catholic Churches and the Reality Today." It also marked the 150th anniversary of the union of Bulgaria's Eastern Catholic Church with Rome.
Some 35 prelates representing various Eastern Churches of Europe took part in the meeting, along with Cardinal Peter Erdo, CCEE president, Cardinal Leonardo Sandri, prefect of the Congregation for Eastern Churches, and other representatives of that dicastery. Members of the Pontifical Council for Migrants and Travelers also participated.

The next annual meeting of Eastern bishops will take place in Oradea, Romania, on the theme, "You Will Be My Witnesses: The Evangelization in Europe's Catholic Eastern Churches."
