CATHOLICOS ARAM I WILL VISIT EASTERN PRELACY IN OCTOBER;
CELEBRATIONS OF 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF SEMINARY PLANNED
NEW YORK, NY-His Holiness Aram I, Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia,
will visit the Eastern Prelacy from October 19 to November 1, 2005. The
announcement of the visit was recently made by Archbishop Oshagan Choloyan,
Prelate of the Eastern Prelacy.
A steering committee under the presidency of the Prelate and the
chairmanship of Dr. George Dermksian has been deliberating and planning
every detail of the Catholicos's itinerary during his visit to the Eastern
Prelacy. The main focus of the visit is the 75th anniversary of the Seminary
in Antelias, Lebanon. His Holiness will attend public commemorative events,
officiate at church services, attend symposiums, and meet with leaders of
the community in various locations including New York, New Jersey,
Washington, Boston and Chicago.
The seventy-five year history of the Seminary in Antelias is a tribute
to the dedication and resiliency of the Armenian people. Since its
re-establishment in 1930 the Seminary has produced hundreds of
clergymen-catholicoses, archbishops, bishops, vartabeds, parish priests-as
well as many hundreds of teachers, principals, choir directors, writers,
musicologists, and staff and volunteer workers. The Seminary is a credit to
all who were involved in its birth and those who subsequently nurtured its
growth. It is this achievement and spirit that is being celebrated this 75th
year of the Seminary at Antelias.
Full details of His Holiness's visit to the east coast and the various
exciting and significant events that are planned will be forthcoming.
