The Pope does will celebrate in the Byzantine rite!
Subdeacon Matta of Australia commented with me that he is helping out some Melkites in Jordan with English liturgical texts, in preparation for the Pope's visit there in May. Glory to Jesus Christ! Outstanding news, Philippe!

Sounds like fun. Can we arrange for this club to serve Viennese pastries?
Fr. Serge LOL!!! There has to be a way for Fr. Serge to do standu...'Evangelization Through Comedy' - maybe he can sell it to his bishop?

But, in Jordan, one should not seek Viennese pastries, but rather "mafrouka"--a paste of almonds, sugar, and butter heated and served under a thick layer of cream, and then all covered in pieces of pistachio.
A speciality of Jordan; once tried, always sought.

Aleppo offers a wonderful soft pastry stuffed with pistachios. Ah, yes! A mutual friend asked, a few years back, that I find out the name of those - and I promised to do so. Must check with a Syrian friend on that

A chara dhil,
When you get the recipe for those pistachio pastries from Aleppo, please share it with me!
re vestments: Pope John Paul II had a set of Byzantine vestments made to fit him - then the nuisances in the Curia would not let him wear them!

The vestments were made for the Divine Liturgy in the Sistine Chapel, at which the Pope was the main consecrator of Archbishop (later Patriarch) Miroslav-Ivan Liubachivsky.
Unfortunately, by the time that the Pope made it to Ukraine and Romania, he was in no physical shape to celebrate the Chrysostom Liturgy in public.
