Are there any Western-rite Oriental Orthodox? I really like some forms of the Western-rite liturgy, so I was wondering if any OO practiced the Western-rite.

Somewhere here we have a thread linked to a video of someone from the British Orthodox Church on the WRO (the BOC is under the Coptic Pope, but use the Syriac rite of Jerusalem).

Also if I remember correctly, the Brahmavar Diocese of the IOC used a modified Tridentine mass up until the 1980's. They were ex Latin rite catholics from Goa who converted to Orthodoxy under St. Julius Mar Alvares.

I'm not sure, but I think it was for liturgical unity, whatever that is...

Quote
In 1986 Very Rev Archimandrite Dr, N J Thomas was installed as the Vicar General of Brahmavar Orthodox community. The next two decades were considered to be the golden era of this community. He introduced the celebration of Eastern Syrian liturgy for all Sundays, earlier it was only celebrated once in a month. The liturgical services were held in the Latin Rite with its Konkini and Kannada translatons. Though many were hesitant to accept this change in the beginning, later the entire community accepted the beauty of the Eastern Liturgy and prayers.

They use the Greek form of St. James' liturgy along with the daily services from the Coptic rite (Morning and evening raising of incense, etc.).

I remember reading several years ago (or more?) that there was a Western Orthodox parish under the Ethiopians in New York City, but I've never been able to find out anything more about it (if it ever existed in the first place).

It's a pity about the Brahmavar's switch, though I'd heard it was more due to the inability of the Keralan priests to serve the Roman Rite properly.

Are there any Western-rite Oriental Orthodox? I really like some forms of the Western-rite liturgy, so I was wondering if any OO practiced the Western-rite.
