    HIS HOLINESS ARAM I PRESIDES OVER THE MEETING
    OF THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE OF THE CATHOLICOSATE

    3-5 June 2009, the Central Committee of the National Council of the Armenian
    Orthodox Church Catholicosate of Cilicia met in Antelias (Lebanon). The
    Central Committee meets in the absence of the National Council and it
    consists of the Prelates and lay Representatives of all Dioceses. The
    Central Committee works under the Leadership of His Holiness Aram I. Its
    function is to receive activity reports from dioceses all over the world,
    oversee and endorse new programme plans and budget.

    His Holiness Aram I opened the meeting and welcomed the members of the
    Central Committee. In his opening speech he said that the Central Committee,
    consisting of clergy and laity, had the important task of identifying issues
    specific to each diocese based on its geographic, cultural and religious
    context, and proposing a comprehensive response that would renew and
    invigorate Christian life in all dioceses of the Catholicosate.
