    THE CATHOLICOSATE OF CILICIA TO DISCUSS ARMENIAN GENOCIDE AT THE
    INTERNATIONAL ECUMENICAL CONFERENCE IN AMMAN



    The International Ecumenical Conference dedicated to the peace process in
    the Middle East was officially inaugurated in Amman on June 18. Around 150
    representatives from several churches around the world participate in this
    conference organized by the World Council of Churches (WCC).

    Bishop Nareg Alemezian (Ecumenical Officer of the Catholicosate) and Dr.
    Nora Bairakdarian-Kabakian (Chairwoman of the Ecumenical Committee)
    represent the Catholicosate of Cilicia in the conference. During the
    conference Dr. Nora will give a talk on the Armenian Genocide, viewing it in
    light of the issues on the conference's agenda.

    The organizers of the conference closely consulted His Holiness Aram I
    during the past months and the Pontiff stressed the importance of
    establishing a connection between justice and peace both in legal,
    theological, political and social senses.

    The conference will end on Thursday.
