Chaldean Syriac Catholic Church

The Chaldean Syriac Catholic Church is an Eastern Catholic Church that follows the traditions of the ancient Mesopotamian Christian communities. It is in full communion with the Roman Catholic Church while maintaining its own liturgical practices, language (often Aramaic), and cultural identity. The church has roots in the early Christian communities of Iraq and surrounding areas, and it honors both its heritage and connection to Catholicism. With a focus on the sacraments and community life, it plays a crucial role in preserving the Christian faith in the region, especially amidst challenges faced by its members today.
