I liked the sound of Aramaic used in "The Passion of the Christ". At least one of our Eastern Rite Churches uses Aramaic. Salvation, you would know better than I, is it the Melkite Rite that's in Aramaic?

I've heard Mass celebrated in several languages, but there is a beauty and solemnity in the Latin Tridentine Mass that gives great glory to God-even in the way the congregation responds, with an extraordinary reverence.

I believe the Maronite Church (Catholic BTW) has some of their prayers in Aramaic. I’m not sure about the Melkite Catholic Church.
