THE LITURGICAL STATIONS OF THE UNITED ROMAN-RUTHENIAN CHURCH
|
These
churches are given special position because of their prominence in
the history and patrimony of the United Roman-Ruthenian Church. The list of
the churches forms a trail of pilgrimage. Those who visit each
church, recite a Pater Noster and an Ave Maria, and pray for the
intentions of the Papa-Catholicos may be recognised
with a special attestation.
In
addition, it is also considered especially pious, whether part
of a pilgrimage or not, to visit the specific churches on the feasts
and Lenten days indicated and participate in liturgy.
The Station
Churches are also noted and commemorated in supreme pontifical masses on
those days and optionally by other churches within the United Roman-Ruthenian Church.
This is to demonstrate the historic and continuing linkage between
each of those churches and the patrimony of the United Roman-Ruthenian Church.
