THE CHRISTIAN EDUCATION DEPARTMENT SETS NEW PROGRAMS FOR THE COMING PERIOD
Christian Education remains one of the major dimensions of the mission of
the Armenian Catholicosate of Cilicia. Recently speaking about Christian
Education, His Holiness Aram I stated: "Christian Education is essentially
Christian formation. Being Christian is a continues process. A Christian is
constantly formed on the basis of Biblical teachings, liturgical traditions
and spiritual values". Hence for His Holiness Aram I "Christian Education is
the essence of the Church's mission" With this perception His Holiness has
always considered Christian Education an important area of engagement for
the Armenian Orthodox Church.
With this objective and commitment, the Christian Education Department of
the Armenian Catholicosate of Cilicia has recently identified a number of
specific areas for its programmatic activities. A special emphasis has been
laid on spirituality, Christian formation of people as well as on the youth
and women. A number of new programs and projects have been set. In addition
to Bible studies, Sunday School programs and youth oriented activities. The
publication and DVD and CD series of the Department will continue with new
additions.
Two Vartabeds have been nominated by His Holiness to carry on the work of
the Department. A special committee under the leadership of V. Rev Krikor
Chiftjian will supervise the activities of the Department. The members of
the committee are Rev. Fr. Torkom Donoyan, Rev. Mesrob Kerkezian, Rev.
