CATHOLICOS ARAM I MEETS WITH FAITHFUL ARMENIAN WOMEN
Over 150 Armenian women, who attend the weekly prayer sessions in Antelias,
visited Catholicos Aram I in the hall of the Veharan.
The first part of the meeting, which was organized by Catholicosate's
Christian Education Department, was dedicated to hymns and prayers. The
women, who had brought companions with them on this special occasion
increasing the total number of the group to about 200, sang hymns following
the guidance of Fr. Torkom Donoyian and read specially chosen prayers.
During the second part of the meeting, Fr. Donoyian invited Catholicos Aram
I to deliver his Pontifical address to the faithful Armenian women, who come
to Antelias every Tuesday to engage in spiritual contemplation.
In his talk, the Pontiff focused on phenomena which may be rooted in our
lives and hence direct our lives in one way or the other. He presented the
viewpoints of our forefathers on sin and on ways to avoid sin and called on
everyone to flourish the life of our church. Finally, the Catholicos
stressed that the Church should not only be in a position to give order, but
should also listen. In this respect, he gave the attendants the opportunity
to present proposals and ideas for reforms. The women in turn presented
their proposals and viewpoints on introducing novelty to the spiritual
contemplation sessions next year.
