Summary/Abstract: The history of the French Province of the Old Catholic Mariavite Church has so far earned no more than contributory remarks from scholars and still remains a largely unexplored territory to researches into the movement. The present article is an attempt to shine more light on how French Mariavites celebrate the Eucharist. The history of Mariavitism in France makes for a backdrop for a liturgical and dogmatic-focused discussion. It is particularly surprising that the French province of the Mariavite church uses two rites, both different from the missal rite celebrated in Poland.
