LECTURES ON THE ARMENIAN CHURCH IN ANTELIAS FOR THE STUDENTS OF THE NEAR
EAST SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY (NEST)
For the eighth consecutive year Dr George Sabra accompanied his students to
Antelias for a study trip to the Armenian Church; the students were exposed
to its life, activities and witness in the Middle East. The Near East School
of Theology belongs to the Evangelical churches and its students come from
all over the world to learn about Middle East Christianity.
On 24 November 2009, His Grace Bishop Nareg, the Ecumenical Officer of the
Catholicosate, welcomed Dr Sabra and his students. After an introductory
presentation on the Armenian Church, he spoke of "The Witness of the
Armenian Church in the Middle East". During the question-answer period the
students wanted to know more about the challenges to the Catholicosate of
Cilicia in transmitting the Spirituality of the Church to the Armenian
Diaspora and in building ecumenical relations.
The students also visited the Cathedral, the Cilicia Museum and the Martyrs
Memorial.
