THE ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE ARMENIAN CHURCH UNIVERSITY STUDENTS'
ASSOCIATION (HEHOM)
IS HELD IN JBEIL
The Armenian Church University Students' Association (HEHOM) organized
its annual conference in the Bird's Nest school in Jbeil on April
29-30. About 25 young students, who contribute to the mission of
the Armenian Church through the Catholicosate of Cilicia, gathered
to enrich their information on the church and religion so they can
continue their work with further understanding and realization.
Bishop Nareg Alemezian, Ecumenical Officer of the Catholicosate of
Cilicia, delivered a special lecture during the conference, talking
about the main families of Christian Churches. The Bishop explained
the history of these churches and of their differences with the
Armenian Church.
In the second part of his lecture Bishop Alemezian spoke about the
ecumenical movement and the role of the Catholicosate of Cilicia. He
explained the reasons behind the church having various families
currently, the main theological differences between various church
groupings, the history of the ecumenical movement and its principal
aim, the theoretical unity of churches. The Bishop also spoke about
the religious, humanitarian, social and other multi-faceted functions
of this international movement.
The interest showed by the attendants in these subjects rendered the
lecture a two way discussion.
The spiritual advisor of the association, Rev. Fr. Housig Mardirossian,
spoke about the seven sacraments of the Armenian Church, their history
and their role in Christian life. He also explained details related
to each of them.
Enriching moments of Bible reading were also held during the
conference.
