The Arberia Parish[a][1] is an Eastern Orthodox Christian parish subordinated to the Russian Orthodox Church (Patriarchate of Moscow).[1] It serves the minority Orthodox Christian community of the Arberesh people of Italy, who are predominantly adherents of the Italo-Albanian Greek Catholic Church. Its head church (Italian: Chiesa di Santa Caterina Megalomartire, Acquaformosa) is in Acquaformosa near Cosenza and is headed by Father Giovanni Capparelli, who is a subordinate of the Patriarch of Moscow. The patron saints of the Arberesh Orthodox Church are Saint John of Kronstadt and Saint Catherine Megalomartyr.
