    HIS HOLINESS MEETS WITH THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE ETHIOPIAN PATRIARCH


    His Holiness Aram I received a delegation from the Ethiopian Orthodox Church
    on May 5. The delegation included two bishops representing the spiritual
    leader of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, Patriarch Abouna Paolos, as well as
    the spiritual leader of the Ethiopian Community of Lebanon and the
    Ambassador of Ethiopia in Lebanon.

    The delegation conveyed the Ethiopian Patriarch's greetings to His Holiness.
    The two sides talked about the construction works of an Ethiopian church in
    Lebanon.

    The friendly relations between the Ethiopian Church and the Catholicosate of
    Cilicia had led the two spiritual leaders to plan constructing an Ethiopian
    church for meeting the spiritual needs of the growing Ethiopian community of
    Lebanon. The church will be built on a land belonging to the Catholicosate
    of Cilicia.

    The close ties between the Catholicosate and the Church had been further
    deepened during an official visit by Patriarch Paolos to Antelias in 2003,
    when he had requested His Holiness to look after the Ethiopian community of
    Lebanon.
