    REVITALIZING THE SUNDAY SCHOOLS OF THE ARMENIAN CHURCH
    WAS THE THEME OF THE CONSULTATION IN KESSAB (SYRIA)

    Upon the initiative of His Holiness Aram I, the Department on Sunday Schools
    of the Catholicosate organized a consultation on the theme "Revitalizing the
    Sunday School". It took place from 8-10 September 2009, at the
    Injejikian-Gulbenkian Centre in Kessab (Syria).

    More than 25 Sunday School Directors, educators and curriculum experts from
    Lebanon, Syria, Cyprus, Iran, Kuwait and other Gulf countries took part.
    They discussed the relationship between home, church and the Sunday School
    in the growth of faith; new religious movements and their impact on the life
    of the church and society; church and spirituality. The consultation
    recommended that the Sunday school by-laws of dioceses be revised in view of
    the new challenges and identify new pedagogical methods to respond to the
    spiritual needs of the youth.
