Organization Overview: The Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America is an archdiocese of the Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch and All the East. It traces its roots to first century Antioch (modern-day Antakya, Turkey), the city in which the disciples of Jesus Christ were first called Christians (Acts 11:26). The Patriarchate is led by His Beatitude John X from Damascus, Syria. In addition to its continuing presence in Syria and Lebanon, the Antiochian Patriarchate has archdioceses in Europe; Asia; North, Central and South America; and Australia and New Zealand.
The Church of Antioch was established by the Apostles Paul and Barnabas in 42 A.D., with St. Peter serving for the next eight years as its first prelate. The Church of Antioch is one of the five ancient Patriarchates of the Christian Church, along with Alexandria, Constantinople, Jerusalem, and Rome. Antiochians are in full communion with other Orthodox Christian jurisdictions, such as the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America and the Orthodox Church in America, as well as many other Orthodox jurisdictions around the world.
Welcome to the Diocese of Toledo and the Midwest, part of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America.

Organization Name: St George Orthodox Church
Organization Overview: I’m glad that you have taken the time to visit our website.
We live in a world where people are hungry to find something solid, reliable and unchanging to feed their souls. Although many are distracted by entertainment masquerading as Christianity, or by the many concerns of this world, at their very hearts they know they need to get back to the ancient Apostolic roots of the Faith.
This is the Orthodox Church. Saint George is one of the five Orthodox parishes in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Each parish is unique as well as fully joined to one another despite being in different jurisdictions (under different bishops). Our Grand Rapids parishes join together for worship, common events—like our Summer Youth program, and common causes.
Saint George parish is the oldest Orthodox church in western Michigan, being first organized in 1906 and made a parish community in 1907 by Saint Raphael (Hawaweeny) of Brooklyn. We are part of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America. Our community’s roots are from Lebanon, but there are many who have joined our parish from European ancestry too. We are a very warm and welcoming community.
If you enjoy a good choir, then you will find a wonderful all volunteer choir here at Saint George. While we primarily sing music from the Byzantine tradition (which has been Americanized), we also sing some Russian music as well.
If you are seeking a “holy space” in which to pray, then you will find one of the most beautiful churches in western Michigan here. You will find praying here deeply moving.
If you desire to develop new friendships and a deeper Christian fellowship, you will be embraced by the warmth and charity of our parishioners. Join us for our coffee hour after the Divine Liturgy and allow us to introduce you to our community.
If you want to understand the Faith better, then you will enjoy our adults’ Bible study or our Inquirers’ Classes.
Whatever you are seeking, you will find in authenticity here at Saint George’s.
We hope that if you are in Grand Rapids you will visit us, for you are most welcome. If you can’t make it here but are in need of prayers for yourself or for your loved ones, please send me their names so that we can pray for them.
Please take your time and look over our website to find out more about Orthodox Christianity. May our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ bless you all.

Organization Name: St George Chaldean Catholic Church
Organization Overview: The need for building another church came to light after St. Joseph Church was rebuilt in 1997. The new church was to seat over 800 people, not than double the capacity of the original church. Shortly after St. Joseph church was re-built, many families moved into Macomb county, and the church was again too small for the community. There were only two choices: add on to the existing church, or build a new church to help relieve the over – crowding. We needed a new church. We needed to expand to meet the community’s spiritual need.

Organization Name: St John Armenian Church of Greater Detroit
Organization Overview: St. John Armenian Church, named in honor of St. John the Baptist & Forerunner of Christ our God, has for 81 years been at the very heart and center of Armenian-American religious and cultural life in Metropolitan Detroit. Since the beginning, the parish has flourished and also reaches out to the Armenian Orthodox faithful who are scattered throught the state of Michigan. Through the efforts of past and present pastors sacramental services now have begun in both Lansing and Grand Rapids where new Armenian communities have taken root.
St. John Armenian Church remains a model community in our Diocese in both the rites of worship and varied ministries within and outside of the parish by offering numerous educational programs and opportunities for Christian growth in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and the faith, tradition, customs and practices of the Armenian Orthodox Church. The varied ministries include: Children's Church School, Altar training, Junior and Senior youth groups, Bible Studies, Lenten Retreats, Women's and Men's groups, Senior Citizens, the learning of sacred music and singing with the Komitas Choir, Armenian cultural enrichment, and as well the Mardigian Research Library and the Alex and Marie Manoogian Museum. The parish groups take part in several Ecumenical missions with other Orthodox, Catholics and Protestants and also provide assistance to many charitable agencies both Armenian based in Armenia, throughout the USA and for local missions to name a few, such as The Alternatitives for Girls, Capuchin Soup Kitchen, Jefferson House for men, Forgotten Harvest, Orthodox Outreach of Detroit.
Most importantly, as Orthodox Christians, we place the greatest emphasis in honoring and worshipping our God our Creator, invoking the All Holy Trinity - Father, Son and Holy Spirit asking for God's grace to imbue our faithful with a life of holiness. This greatest of all emphasis is reflected in the Mystery and Beauty offered to God every Sunday at our Divine Liturgy - receiving Holy Communion and taking part in other Canonical Services.
All are invited to come to St. John Armenian Church and to worship and witness this profound Mystery and Beauty in our Divine Services and to join us in lifting our voices in praise and thankfulness to our loving Creator.

Organization Name: The Antiochian Orthodox Basilica of St. Mary
Organization Overview: St. Mary Orthodox Church is a parish of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of north America. In February, 1972, St. Mary Antiochian Orthodox Church was born when a young priest named Fr. George Shalhoub was ordained and assigned to a small parish in Livonia, Michigan with no church building to call their own. Five years later, in 1977, the Community was blessed to have Metropolitan PHILIP preside over the dedication of their brand new church building located on Merriman road and finally had a place to call home. Then in 1991, the completion of the cultural center, next door to the church, opened and has been a consistent meeting place for the people of this parish.
The goal for every ministry program at the Basilica of St. Mary is no different than the goal for leading a strong Orthodox Christian way of life. This goal is realized through providing opportunities for each person to be fully integrated into the total life of the Church by helping them to commit to living their faith through worship, witness, service and fellowship.
The success of this goal is based upon building a foundation of strong relationships with each other that are rooted in love, honesty, trust, openness, respect and forgiveness. These six pillars of our Christian faith, when integrated together, work to build up a strong Christian way of life.
To offer the entire Basilica of St. Mary community (Infant thru Seniors) a place in which they can come together with other Orthodox Christians to receive moral, ethical, and spiritual guidance based on our Orthodox Christian faith, providing a foundation for leading a Christ-centered life, and giving opportunities to spread Love, Joy, and Hope to our neighbors through works of mercy and outreach.
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you. By this all will know that you are My disciples. (John 13:34-35)
With this goal in mind, the Basilica of St. Mary has in place many ministry programs for all members of the community to participate in, allowing them to not only internalize the six pillars, but to begin to put them into practice.

The Melkite Greek Catholic Church (Arabic: كنيسة الروم الملكيين الكاثوليك, Kanīsat ar-Rūm al-Malakiyyīn al-Kāṯūlīk) is an Eastern Catholic Church in full communion with the Holy See as part of the worldwide Catholic Church. The Melkites, Byzantine Rite Catholics of mixed Eastern Mediterranean and Greek origin, trace their history to the early Christians of Antioch, Turkey, of the 1st century AD, where Christianity was introduced by St. Peter.
The Melkite Church has a high degree of ethnic homogeneity and the church's origins lie in the Near East, but Melkite Greek Catholics are present throughout the world due to migration. Outside of the Near East, the Melkite Church has also grown through inter-marriage with, and the conversion of, people of various ethnic heritages. At present there is a worldwide membership of approximately 1.6 million. The Melkite Catholic Church's Byzantine roots and liturgical practices are rooted in those of Eastern Orthodoxy, while the Church has maintained communion with the Catholic Church in Rome since a split from the Greek Orthodox Church of Antioch in 1729.

كنيسة الروم الملكيين الكاثوليك
كنيسة الروم الملكيين الكاثوليك كنيسة كاثوليكية شرقية مستقلة مرتبطة في شركة تامة مع الكنيسة الكاثوليكية في روما بشخص رئيسها البابا. الموطن الأصلي لهذه الكنيسة هو الشرق الأوسط، وينتشر اليوم قسم من الروم الكاثوليك في بلاد الاغتراب، شأنهم في ذلك كشأن باقي مسيحيي الشرق. أمّا اللغة الطقسية الليتوروجية لهذه الكنيسة فهي اللغة العربية.
اسم كنيسة الروم الملكيين الكاثوليك
لكل لفظة في اسم هذه الكنيسة دلالات معينة. فلفظة "الملكيين" وبالسريانية ملكويي Malkoyee أطلقت على المسيحيين في المشرق الذين قبلوا شرعية مجمع خلقيدونية التي أقرّها الامبراطور البيزنطي مرقيانوس وذلك عام ٤٥١ م. فأطلق عليهم إخوانهم السريان والأقباط اللاخلقيدونيون هذا الاسم إشارةً إلى أنهم يتبعون مذهب الامبراطور أو الملك. وهذا الاسم لا يرتبط بشكل عام بجميع المجموعات الخلقيدونية. لفظة الروم تدل على الانتماء لتراث الكنيسة الرومية البيزنطية. ومن هذه الناحية تختلف طقوسها وطبيعة بناء ليتوروجيتها قليلا عن بقية الكنائس الأرثوذكسية الشرقية. لفظة الكاثوليك تدل بشكل عام على انتماء جماعة أو كنيسة ما إلى سلطة بابا روما وبطبيعة الحال تدل الكلمة أيضا على وحدة وشركة الكنيسة العالميّة{ الكاثوليكية الجامعة }. وقد كان القديس إغناطيوس النوراني أحد آباء الكنيسة الرسوليين أول من استعمل اصطلاح الكنيسة الكاثوليكية. ومن الملكيين مَن يعتبرون أنفسهم أقدمَ جماعة كاثوليكية. في اللغات الأوربية تسمى هذه الكنيسة كنيسة اليونانيين الملكيين الكاثوليك Melkite Greek Catholic Church. لكن حبّذا لو سمّيَت "Melkite Byzantine Church " لأن المقصود هنا بلفظة (Greek) ليس اليونانيين بل البيزنطيين. ولعل خير دليل على ذلك أن المؤرخين العرب القدماء استعملوا تعبير "حروب الرّوم" وليس "حروب اليونانيين". ويفسر البعض ذلك بأن المصطلح "روم" بالعربية يُستعمل أحيانا للدلالة على اليونان.
تاريخ كنيسة الروم الملكيين الكاثوليك
أن جذور هذه الكنيسة ترجع إلى الجماعات المسيحية المختلفة في بلاد الشام ومصر ويتسع نطاق سلطة بطريركها إلى ثلاثة كراسي بطريركية قديمة وهي أنطاكية والإسكندرية وأورشليم. ويمكننا أن ننظر إلى تاريخ هذه الكنيسة وعلاقاتها مع الكنائس الأخرى من خلال ثلاثة محاور رئيسية.
المحور الأول هو التأثير السياسي الاجتماعي الذي خلفه مجمع خلقيدونية في القرن الخامس الميلادي على المجتمع المسيحي في الشرق الأوسط إذْ إنه سبب انقساما حادا بين الذين قبلوا مقررات المجمع والذين رفضوها.انّ الذين قبلوا مجمع خلقيدونية كانوا عمومًا من سكان المدن الهيلنستية المتكلمين باللغة اليونانية. ودُعُوا ملكيين من قبل اللاخلقيدونيين الذين كانوا من سكان المدن الداخلية المتكلمة بالسريانية في سوريا وابالقبطية في مصر.
المحور الثاني كان التحوّل الفجائيّ الذي غيّر منطقة الشرق الأوسط بكاملها بعد معركة اليرموك عام ٦٣٦ م حيث انتقل الملكيون من هيمنة البيزنطيين ليخضعوا لسلطة العرب المسلمين الذين انتصروا في تلك المعركة.
ومع ان اللغة والثقافة اليونانية احتفظت بمكانتها خصوصا عند الملكيين في مدينة أورشليم/القدس. إلا أن عادات وتقاليد الروم الملكيين انصهرت وذابت تدريجيا ضمن اللغة والثقافة العربية. وهذا أدى إلى تباعد بين بطريرك القسطنطينية رئيسِ الأرثوذكس الشرقيين الخلقيدونيين وأبناء رعيته من الملكيين الخاضعين للحكم العربي الإسلامي.
وابتداء من عام ١٣٤٢م نشط عمل الإرساليات الغربية الكاثوليكية في الشرق لا سيّما في مدينة دمشق. وكان لتعليمهم تأتيرٌ كبير على رجال الدين الملكيين ورعاياهم. ومع أنه لم يحدث في تلك الفترة انشقاقٌ حقيقيّ عن الكنيسة الأرثوذكسية إلا أن تلك التغيرات مهدت السبيل إلى بزوغ جماعة كاثوليكية في قلب الأرثوذكسية الشرقية.
المحور الثالث كان انتخاب الأساقفة الملكيّين السّوريّين لكيرلس السادس الأنطاكي عام ١٧٢٤م في دمشق بطريركًا جديدًا لأنطاكية. ولمّا كان كيرلس هذا كاثوليكي الميول شعر بطريرك القسطنطينية إرميا الثالث بأن سلطته البطريركية عليهم قد تكون في خطر فأعلن أن انتخاب كيرلس السادس لاغ. وعين سيلفستروس وهو راهب يوناني ليحلّ محلّه على كرسي بطريركية أنطاكية. وقد أثار هذا الأخير رغبة الانفصال عند بعض الملكيين بسبب القوانين الكنسية الثقيلة التي فرضها عليهم. فآثروا الاعتراف بسلطة كيرلس السادس كبطريرك عليهم بدلا من سيلفستروس. وفي العام ذاته اي ١٧٢٤م رحب بابا روما المنتخب حديثا البابا بينيديكتوس الثالث عشر رحب بكيرلس السادس كبطريرك أنطاكية الحقيقي والشرعي وقبله مع مَن تبعه من الروم الملكيين ككنيسة حقيقية في شركة تامة مع الكنيسة الكاثوليكية. وانطلاقا من ذلك الحين أصبحت كنيسة الروم الملكيين الكاثوليك ذات كيان مستقل منفصل تمامًا عن بطريركية أنطاكية وسائر المشرق للروم الأرثوذكس الشرقيين.
محطات هامة
لعبت كنيسة الروم الملكيين الكاثوليك دورا هامًّا في قيادة المسيحيين العرب. فقد كان قادتها دوما من المسيحيين الناطقين بالعربية، بينما اعتادت بطريركية أنطاكية وسائر المشرق للروم الأرثوذكس أن يقودها بطاركة قادمون من اليونان حتى عام ١٨٩٩م. وفي عام ١٨٣٥ م اعترفت السلطات العثمانية بالبطريرك مكسيميوس الثالث مظلوم بطريرك أنطاكية للروم الملكيين الكاثوليك كقائد ملة أي راعي طائفة دينية مميَّزة في الامبراطورية. كما منح البابا غريغوريوس السادس عشر البطريرك مكسيميوس الثالث لقب بطريرك أنطاكية وسائر المشرق والإسكندرية وأورشليم وهذا اللقب الثلاثيّ لا يزال يحمله بطاركة هذه الكنيسة حتى يومنا هذا.
كان البطريرك غريغوريوس الثاني يوسف (١٨٦٤-١٨٩٧) معارضًا قويا لقضية العصمة الباباوية المطروحة انذاك على البحث في المجمع الفاتيكاني الأول. وكان موقفه هذا ناجمًا عن يقينه بأن من شأن إعلان هذه العقيدة أن يسبب توترا كبيرًا في العلاقات القائمة بين الملكيين الكاثوليك وباقي المسيحيين الشرقيين. وهذا ما حدث فعلا. أمّا في المجمع الفاتيكاني الثاني فقد دافع البطريرك الملكيّ مكسيموس الرابع الصايغ دفاعًا حاسمًا عن التراث المسيحيّ الشرقي وبذلك نال احتراما كبيرا في صفوف الملكيين الأرثوذكس الذين حضروا ذلك المجمع بصفة مراقبين. وواصل خلَفُه البطريرك مكسيموس الخامس حكيم (١٩٦٧-٢٠٠٠) مسيرة اسلافه في إقامة علاقات أخوية طيبة بين كنيسة الروم الملكيين الكاثوليك وسائرالكنائس المسيحية الأرثوذكسيّة الشرقية.
إنّ البطريرك الملكيّ الحالي هو غريغوريوس الثالث لحام بطريرك أنطاكية وسائر المشرق والإسكندرية وأورشليم للروم الملكيين الكاثوليك. ومقرّه الرسميّ في حارة الزّيتون - الباب الشّرقيّ - بالعاصمة السورية دمشق. ويبلغ تعداد أبناء هذه الطائفة قرابة ١٣٥٠٠٠٠ ويقال ان أكثر من نصفهم يقيمون في بلاد الاغتراب.
