It is an old tradition in Catholicism to make the sign of the cross when passing a Catholic church, as a sign of respect to the Eucharist contained in the tabernacle, located within the Church. I am wondering: 1. Do Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, and Church of the East also have tabernacles in their churches? 2. If they do, is it appropriate for a Catholic to make the sign of the cross when passing these churches?
