    THE CATHOLCIOSATE OF CILICIA PARTICIPATES IN THE CONFERENCE OF THE
    MECC COMMITTEE OF WOMEN'S PROGRAM


    The Middle East Council of Churches (MECC) committee of women's program
    organized a one-day conference in the museum of the Catholicosate of Cilicia
    on June 25. The main theme of the conference was "what does being a
    Christian mean?"

    The participants discussed the role of women in the church by analyzing
    excerpts from the Bible.

    Ms. Nelly Vekilian participated in the conference on behalf of the
    Catholicosate of Cilicia. Around 100 women from different churches
    participated in the conference. About 20 of these were from the Armenian
    Orthodox Church. The participants in the conference also visited the
    "Cilicia" museum.

    His Holiness Aram I gave cross souvenirs to each participant.
