HIS HOLINESS ARAM I VISITS PATRIARCH YOHANNA X
OF THE GREEK ORTHODOX CHURCH OF ANTIOCH
On Wednesday 19 December 2012, Catholicos Aram I visited the new Patriarch
of the Greek Orthodox Church of Antioch, Yohanna X, at the Balamand
Monastery. After congratulating the new Head, Catholicos Aram I spoke of the
long relationship between the two churches and expressed the wish to
strengthen that relationship, especially in view of the current difficulties
of Christians in the Middle East.
The Patriarch Yohanna thanked His Holiness Aram I for the visit and
confirmed his commitment to working together with all churches in the region
to strengthen Christian presence and witness in the region.
