HIS HOLINESS ISSUES AN ENCYCLICAL ON THE OCCASION OF
THE 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE SEMINARY'S ESTABLISHMENT
His Holiness Aram I's Encyclical dedicated to the 75th anniversary
of the establishment of the Seminary of the Catholicosate of Cilicia
was read out in the St. Gregory the Illuminator Cathedral on May 1. Fr
Bartev Gulumian, the Dean of the Seminary, read the encyclical during
the holy mass.
His Holiness focuses in the encyclical on the history of the Seminary's
establishment and through it on all those, including catholicoi and
teachers, who have contributed to the material, intellectual and
spiritual formation of the seminary. The encyclical combines the
views of each Cilician Catholicos towards the institution and their
visions for its future.
The encyclical addresses all the former students of the seminary,
who have passed through this spirit-building institution, all
the benefactors, who have believed and continue to believe in the
Seminary's irreplaceable mission, the Seminary's current students,
calling upon them to consciously evaluate their years at the
institution, and all the Armenians, calling upon them to support
the Seminary.
The encyclical was read out in all the dioceses under the jurisdiction
of the Catholicosate of Cilicia. Commemorations and celebrations will
be held throughout the year in Lebanon and all the dioceses on the
occasion of the 75th anniversary of the Seminary's establishment.
