The Ebrarian Orthodox Catholic Church, abbreviated ECOE and also known variously as the Ebraro-Orthodox Catholic Church or most simply as the Ebrarian Orthodox Church, is an autocephalous Orthodox Christian church in the Ebraro-Orthodox and iconodulist tradition located in Ebrary. The ECOE is consists of parishes, missions, communities, monasteries and institutions in Ebrary.

Liturgy

The liturgy of the ECOE is an adaptation of the old Aroman Rite used by the Christian church in Ebrary before the Amendant Reformation. After the Reformation, the liturgy was informally maintained for centuries until it was codified by a council of Ebraro-Orthodox ministers in the Church of Ebrary during the 19th century, which created an Ebraro-Orthodox form of the main Ebraricist liturgy. This was codified in the Ebraro-Orthodox Prayer Guide. In 1963, the ECOE published an updated version of the liturgy which attempted to bring the liturgy of the church back in line with mainstream Orthodoxy while simultaneously preserving the Ebrarian character inherited from the liturgy of the Church of Ebrary. This liturgy, outlined in the "Ebrarian Orthodox Prayerbook", has continued to be used up to the current year with only minor revisions and is known as the Ebrarian Rite. Service is permitted to be conducted in both Ebrarese and Fragran, but Ebrarese predominates in the vast majority of places.
