  • The Ethiopian Catholic Church is a Metropolitan sui iuris Eastern particular Church within the Catholic Church and uses the Ethiopic liturgical rite. Its membership includes inhabitants of Ethiopia and Eritrea. It is the Catholic "counterpart" to the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, an Oriental Orthodoxy which is separated in schism from both the Catholic Church and the Eastern churches. It shares a Divine Liturgy and customs with the Ethiopian Orthodox, while differing in its Christological view some beliefs about the Sacraments, and its recognition of the Pope as the successor of St. Peter and his universal jurisdiction. Liturgical latinisation is widespread. The differences range from the minor to significant between the Orthodox and Catholic Ethiopian Churches. On the less-important side of things, the Divine Liturgy includes prayers for the Pope to show that they are in full communion with Rome. On the more important side, a Catholic Canon of Scripture is kept and the Church is Chalcedonian in its theology, rejecting the miaphysite formula of St. Cyril. Children are not ordained to the diaconate, as is common in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, and the clergy tend to wear a Roman cassock and collar, which is neither Ethiopian in custom nor Eastern in practice.
