Holy Transfiguration Melkite Church and Lunch

Join Washington Metro Catholics for Sunday Mass at the Holy Transfiguration Melkite Church in McLean Virginia. Holy Transfiguration has an incredibly beautiful interior in the Eastern Orthodox tradition - but the Church is in communion with Rome, so you can go to Sunday Mass! The Sunday "Divine Liturgy" is beautifully chanted with lots of incense. After Mass we will go out for lunch. The Church is conveniently located and less than five minute drive from Tysons Corner Shopping Mall. http://maps.google.com/?q=8501+Lewinsville+Road,McLean,Va+22102&ie=UTF8&ll=38.931372,-77.229338&spn=0.026173,0.05785&z=14&iwloc=A The Holy Transfiguration web site is here: http://www.holytransfiguration.org Here is a general article on Eastern Catholic tradition http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Catholic_Churches And a more specific article on the historical development of the Melkite Greek Church http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melkite_Greek_Catholic_Church
