We had a Maronite priest for Mass this evening.

Bi-ritual? Did he celebrate the Latin or Maronite liturgy?

Yes, bi-ritual. He’s been in the U.S. a couple of different times, and now mostly does the Latin liturgy, but also serves the Maronites in the Carolinas. I think they have another Maronite priest in the Raleigh Diocese, but Charlotte picks up people from South Carolina who are officially in the Charleston diocese.

A very nice man, early 40s. Father Eli something ... said his first language is French.
