    A MEETING OF THE ARMENIAN AND GREEK PATRIARCHS

    On the afternoon of 28 July 2005 there was a meeting held at
    the request of the Armenian Patriarchate between His All Holiness
    Bartholomew I, Istanbul Greek Orthodox Patriarch, and His Beatitude
    Mesrob II, Armenian Patriarch of Istanbul and All Turkey. The meeting
    was held in the Greek Patriarchate at Fener.

    His Beatitude the Patriarch conveyed the news that he had received
    a letter from His Holiness Catholicos Karekin II of All Armenians,
    who was invited to Istanbul by Patriarch Bartholomew, and was waiting
    for a date to be named by the Armenian and Greek Patriarchates for
    the Istanbul visit.

    Following an inspection of the 2006 Greek and Armenian church
    calendars, it was decided to reach a common date within one week.

    His All Holiness Patriarch Bartholomew informed that he would preside
    over the Divine Liturgy on Friday morning at Holy Transfiguration
    Greek Orthodox Monastery on Kinali Island and open the summer camp
    as they do each year for Greek Orthodox children. He invited His
    Beatitude the Patriarch to the ceremonies.
