HIS HOLINESS ARAM I RECEIVES METROPOLITAN SALIBA

His Holiness Aram I received, on March 29, Bishop Georges Saliba, the
Metropolitan of the Syrian Church in Beirut. Ecumenical Officer of the
Catholicosate of Cilicia, Bishop Nareg Alemezian, also attended the meeting.

The Pontiff and his guest discussed the meeting in Damascus next month
between the spiritual Heads of Oriental Orthodox Churches in the Middle East
and the agenda of the preceding Steering Committee meeting. His Holiness
made a number of comments in this respect, clarifying the importance of the
issues to be discussed and the priorities among them.

The upcoming annual meeting between the three spiritual Heads of the
Oriental Orthodox Churches in the Middle East- the Coptic Orthodox, the
Syrian Orthodox and the Armenian Apostolic churches (Catholicosate of
Cilicia)- will this year be the tenth annual meeting of this kind.
