ARAM I HELPS THE ETHIOPIANS
OF LEBANON BUILD THEIR FIRST CHURCH
Antelias, Lebanon - His Holiness Aram I, Catholicos of Cilicia, has
contributed to the church-building efforts of the Ethiopian community
of Lebanon. The community will soon construct its first church in the
Ainaar village, located in Mount Lebanon. The land was registered as
a property of the Catholicosate of Cilicia.
His Holiness Patriarch Abouna Paulos, the Head of the Ethiopian
Orthodox Church, had visited the Catholicosate two years ago and asked
Aram I to assist the Ethiopian Community of Lebanon. Upon his request,
Catholicos Aram I closely followed the religious activities of the
community during the last two years. The Ethiopian Patriarch's visit
has paved the way for continual cooperation between the Catholicosate
of Cilicia and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church.
