Eastern Catholic church
The Eritrean Catholic Church is a sui iuris (autonomous) Eastern Catholic church based in Eritrea, in full communion with the Holy See of Rome. It was established in 2015 when its territory was separated from the Ethiopian Catholic Church. The church is organized under a metropolitan bishop who exercises oversight of a number of suffragan dioceses. In its liturgical services, it uses the Alexandrian Rite in the Geʽez language. Within the Tewahedo tradition, the principal distinction is ecclesial: the Eritrean Catholic Tewahedo Church is in full communion with the Pope of Rome, whereas the Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church is not; both preserve the Geʽez Rite and the historic Tewahedo liturgical-theological heritage.
