Pope Benedict XVI made a point of welcoming Catholicos Aram I, the
head of the Armenian Apostolic Church in the Middle East, to his
public audience on November 26. Thanking the Armenian prelate for
his energetic work in the field of ecumenism, the Pope said that
his visit to Rome "is a significant occasion for strengthening the
bonds of unity already existing between us." The Pontiff invoked the
intercession of St. Gregory the Illuminator, who brought the faith
to Armenia, to assist the quest for full Christian unity.
