    HIS HOLINESS ARAM I RECEIVES A HIGH-LEVEL DELEGATION
    FROM THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

    His Holiness Aram I received a 7-member high-level delegation from the
    Presbyterian Church in the St. Asdvadzadzine Monastery in Bikfaya on August
    26.

    The Pontiff and his guests met for about an hour discussing various issues
    related to the activities of the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC). As
    President of the MECC, His Holiness briefed the delegation members on the
    various aspects related to the Council's work.

    Another topic on the agenda was the Christian-Muslim dialogue. His Holiness
    spoke in detail about the engagement of the churches in the Middle East in
    general and the Armenian church in particular in different dialogue
    activities on regional and international levels.

    The two sides also discussed the "Djinishian Memorial" humanitarian service,
    which is also supported by the Presbyterian Church. His Holiness expressed
    his praise to the Church for its systematic support, which he added,
    encouraged the Djinishian center's staff to serve those in need in the
    various sectors of social life.
