THE DIOCESE OF CYPRUS OBSERVES WEEK OF CHRISTIAN EDUCATION
The Catholicos of the Holy See of Cilicia, His Holiness Aram I has declared
2008 to be the year of Christian Education. Consequently, events dedicated
to Christian Education were organized throughout the week of 19-23 November
in the Diocese of Cyprus due to the collaborative efforts of the
Catholicosate's Christian Education Department and the Religious Council of
the Diocese of Cyprus. The events were held under the auspices of the
Pontifical Vicar to the Diocese, Archbishop Varoujan Hergelian.
The director of the Catholicosate's Christian Education Department, Father
Torkom Donoyan, delivered lectures in three cities in Cyprus- Nicosia,
Larnaca and Limasol- around the general theme "The Year of Christian
Education; An opportunity to connect to the Gospel." Father Donoyan also
held discussions with the youth on "The Gospel, The Armenian Church and
moral issues". He visited the "Nareg" school and talked with the students
about their Christian formation.
The "Week of Christian Education" concluded with the Sunday mass, which
collided with the feast of the Presentation to the Temple of the Holy Mother
of God.
