families, the Catholicos allocated money to the Armenian Prelacy, to
provide food and other necessities.

the terrible Lebanese war, the Armenians of Lebanon remained intact
owing to collective will, faith and unity. The Armenians of Syria must
do the same. We must support the Armenians of Syria, so they may
surmount the difficulties,' said the Catholicos.
Also, Aram I instructed the dioceses of the Great House of Cilicia to
provide monetary assistance to Syria's Armenian schools.
