HIS HOLINESS ARAM I WISHES
THE QUICK RECOVERY OF POPE JOHN PAUL II
His Holiness Aram I contacted Vatican officials from the headquarters of the
World Council of Churches in Geneva and expressed his wishes for the quick
recovery of His Holiness Pope John Paul II. The Pope had been hospitalized
because of health problems. His Holiness wished full recovery to the Pope in
the name of the Catholicosate of Cilicia as well as personally.

representatives and discussed inter church affairs with them. The two sides
talked about the theological dialogue between the Oriental Orthodox churches
and the Roman Catholic Church. The first session of this dialogue had been
