    YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 12, ARMENPRESS. The question regarding marriages
    of Christians adhering to different denominations is under the
    examination of Armenian Apostolic Church and taking into consideration
    the factor of the Armenian Diaspora it will be introduced in the
    upcoming Episcopal Council. The Director of Information Services,
    Spokesman of Catholicos of All Armenians Fr. Vahram Melikyan announced
    this in a conversation with "Armenpress". Fr. Vahram stated: "There
    is a Ceremonial Committee in the Armenian Apostolic Church, which
    handles the issues regarding the heritage of the ceremonies in the
    Armenian Apostolic Church including the issue regarding marriages
    of Christians adhering to different denominations. Only after this
    the question is being introduced to the approval of the Episcopal
    Council. This question is still in the stage of discussion of the
    committee. The issue of the Sacrament of Baptism will be introduced
    in the upcoming Episcopal Council and the next Episcopal Council will
    discuss the order of the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony."

    The Armenian Patriarchate of Constantinople informed "Armenpress" that
    they bless the marriage of the Christians. The Armenian Patriarchate
    of Constantinople stated: "But as to the marriage of the Christian and
    non-Christian, than the Patriarchate does not bless these marriages
    in the basis of the rules and principles of the Armenian Apostolic
    Church."
