"Do you have a source for this news?"
We've a couple of Maronites in our parish who are married to Orthodox Lebanese guys. The parents of one of the girls are visiting from the old country and made this comment. Hardly an official source which is why I asked if the news was correct.
The Patriarch convened a 2 year Synod that ended last year. Its goals:
-To discover the Maronite heritage and traditions to consolidate the Maronite identity.
-To perform the required renewal in the ecclesiastical life.
-To confirm the unity of the Maronite church in the patriarchal territory and in the countries of expansion.
I've scoured the official web site but find no specific mention of undoing the post VCII reforms. Perhaps you will have more luck. Here is the link .
