    Thirty professors and doctoral candidates from the University of Vienna
    visited Bikfaya on July 3 and listened to a lecture entitled "Christianity
    in the Middle East today" by His Holiness Aram I.

    His Holiness highlighted the important dates and events since the existence
    of Christianity in the Middle East and outlined the challenges and
    difficulties that Christianity faces today.

    The Catholicos also talked about the priorities that should guide
    Christianity today, emphasizing the importance of Christian unity,
    evangelism, social service and Christian education.

    His Holiness concluded that the churches of the Middle East are part of the
    ecumenical movement and stressed the importance of their cooperation with
    churches in other regions.

    His Holiness also asked some questions related to the Armenian Church,
    Lebanon and Christian-Muslim dialogue at the end of his lecture.
