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.
