HIS HOLINESS ARAM I VISITS HIS BEATITUDE IGNATIUS JOSEPH III YOUNAN

His Holiness Aram I accompanied with Bishops of the Brotherhood visited His Beatitude Ignatius Joseph III to congratulate him on his election as Patriarch to lead and serve his people.

During the visit, the two Heads spoke of the relationship between the two churches while the new Patriarch served his church in Syria and the United States of America as a Bishop. The two leaders also recalled the relationships between the Syriac Catholic Church and the Armenian Orthodox Church during the Armenian Kingdom (now Turkey), since the 11th century.

Patriarch Ignatius Joseph III asked Catholicos Aram I about his visit to the Vatican in November 2008, and its follow-up.

At the end of the visit, His Holiness Aram I expressed the hope that the ancient bonds of relationship between the two churches would be strengthened under the leadership of Patriarch Ignatius Joseph III, and would find new expressions in their common ecumenical task regarding Christian presence in the Middle East.
