    The Central Committee of the Catholicosate of Cilicia sets priorities for
    2014

    Anelias - 25 January 2014. Following the meeting of the Council of
    Religion, the Council of Laity met under the Presidency of His Holiness Aram
    I. The members reviewed the programmes and budgets proposed by the General
    Assembly and approved the following priorities for 2014: Construction
    projects, preparatory activities for the 100th anniversary commemoration of
    the Genocide, activities of the Committee on Protecting the Western Armenian
    Language, the programme and budget of the Khatcher Kaloustian Pedagogical
    Centre.

    At the end of the deliberations of the two Councils, the Central Committee
    met in plenary and highlighted the following concerns: Assistance to the
    community in Syria to stay and rebuild its life, cooperation between the two
    Holy Sees of Etchmiadzin and Cilicia on the basis of the decisions taken
    during the last All Armenian Bishops conference and proposals related to the
    dioceses of the Catholicosate of Cilicia.

    His Holiness Aram I closed the meeting with the following words, " In
    humility and without overrating our achievements, our task is to serve our
    people by recovering the Spirituality of our Church in our daily lives,
    promoting educational activities, safeguarding our cultural heritage,
    serving our members in need and promoting ecumenical relations. We lack
    neither commitment nor faith nor vision. What we lack is finances. I pray
    and remain confident that our faithful will support the work of our Church
    as approved by you, their representatives."
