Question

Two answers required. Several sui iuris (“swee YOO-riss”) churches collectively described by these two adjectives descend from two distinct Ruthenian Uniate churches. For 10 points each:
[10m] What two English adjectives describe 23 particular churches in full communion? They include the Chaldean (“kal-DEE-in”) and Maronite patriarchates and several “Greek” churches that use the Byzantine rite.
ANSWER: Eastern AND Catholic [accept answers in either order; accept Oriental in place of “Eastern”; accept Catholica or Catholicos in place of “Catholic”; reject “Eastern Orthodox,” “Oriental Orthodox,” “Roman Catholic,” or “Latin Church”] (The term “Uniate” is sometimes considered derogatory.)
[10e] The prefix “Syro-” distinguishes Eastern Catholic Malabar and Malankara churches named for this saint from Oriental Orthodox ones that repudiated Portuguese influence. This apostle supposedly preached in India.
ANSWER: Saint Thomas [or Thomas the Apostle, Doubting Thomas, T’ōmā, Didymus, or Didymos; accept Saint Thomas Christians or Mar Thoma Nasrani]
[10h] Thomas’s disciple Addai and his own follower Mari name the primary anaphora used in this Eucharist of the Edessan rite, which recalls the ancient Didache (“DID-uh-kay”). You may also give the West Syriac equivalent.
ANSWER: Holy Qurbānā [or Qurbānā Qaddišā or Qurbānā Qandišā; accept Holy Qūrōbō, Holy Qurbōnō, Qūrōbō Qādīśō, or Qurbōnō Qādīśō; accept qorbān or korban; prompt on holy offering or holy sacrifice]
