    ORIENTAL ORTHODOX CHURCHES FOR COLLABORATION WITH THE UNITED BIBLE SOCIETIES


    A meeting between Orthodox and Oriental Orthodox Churches was convened in
    Athens on December 7-8 with the aim of regulating the consultations
    initiated between this family of Churches and the United Bible Societies.

    The Catholicosate of Cilicia delegated Archbishop Gomidas Ohanian to
    participate in the meeting whereas the Catholicosate of All Armenians was
    represented by Deacon Hratch Sarkissian, director of the Bible Society of
    Armenia.

    The meeting reviewed the conclusions and results of the previous meetings
    held in 1999, 2004 and 2005 between the groups and set out plans for future
    cooperation. The participants decided to hold their next meeting in 2008.
