About St Nicholas Byzantine Catholic Church
The Catholic Church is a communion of churches made up from both the Eastern and Western Traditions.
Eastern Catholics are in union with Rome and the Pope. We share the same basic faith and Mysteries (Sacraments), however our way of expressing them is more in line with the Orthodox tradition.

Q. Is this church in communion with the Pope of Rome?
A. Yes, the Byzantine Catholic Church is governed by our Metropolitan Archbishop who is in full communion with the Pope of Rome. We maintain the apostolic succession of the Church which Christ initiated with Peter and the rest of the apostles, We are fully recognized by and in complete communion with the Pope of Rome. St. John Paul the Great praised our unity and diversity which the Eastern Catholic Churches bring to the Catholic communion by calling the Eastern and Western Catholic Churches the "Two Lungs of the Church."
Q. Can I receive communion here?

Q. What should I do to receive communion by mouth?
A. In the Byzantine Tradition, communion is received under both forms (the bread and the wine) simultaneously by mouth by a small spoon. The recipient needs only to tilt the head back slightly, keeping the tongue in the mouth, and the priest will drop the particle into the mouth. There is no contact with the spoon
