    THE FOUR MUSTS: FAITHFULNESS TO CHURCH, NATION AND CULTURE, JUSTICE FOR ARMENIAN GENOCIDE VICTIMS

    14:31, 24 Oct 2014

    A three-day conference dedicated to the 400 years of Armenian presence
    in New Julfa was held at Ararat Community Hall. The conference opened
    on October 21 in the presence of the Governor and Vice Governor of
    Isfahan, the Head of Religious Affairs, the President of Isfahan
    University and Professors of Yerevan University (Armenia).

    In his opening message, His Holiness Aram I congratulated the
    organisers for the timely event on the theme," New Julfa, the Symbol
    of Conviviality among the Three Monotheistic Religions."

    Addressing the presence of Armenians in New Julfa, the Catholicos
    spoke of the rich experience of Armenians, which he said has been well
    documented in the literature. He added, however, that more scientific
    research should be encouraged in order to highlight the mutually
    enriching experience of the two people. Referring to the theme of
    the conference, His Holiness added, "the historical experience of the
    three Monotheistic religions should now move from coexisting together
    to working together."

    The three day conference concluded with the celebration of the 350th
    anniversary of the Holy Saviour Monastery, in New Julfa, in the
    presence of His Holiness Aram I and the Prime Minister of Armenia
    accompanied by seven Government Ministers.

    In his closing message His Holiness Aram I said that nations are
    enriched and sustained through their inherited legacies: the Church,
    the Nation, the Culture and demanding justice to the memories of the
    Genocide victims. He then elaborated on the theme of the Armenian
    Genocide and said that irrespective of the circumstances and the time,
    we shall continue to demand justice for our martyrs. He then added
    that there were two different approaches, one that of the Armenia as
    government and two the Diaspora. While approaches differ, the goals
    should remain the same because we owe justice to our martyrs.
