    THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY VISITS ANTELIAS


    The Head of the Anglican Church, Archbishop of Canterbury Dr. Rowan
    Williams, will visit Antelias next Friday. The Archbishop will first hold a
    private meeting with Catholicos Aram I. The two spiritual leaders will then
    be joined by representatives of the Catholicosate of Cilicia and the
    Anglican Church. The Armenian Pontiff will organize a luncheon in the
    evening in honor of the Archbishop of Canterbury.

    The Archbishop's visit to Lebanon falls within a series of official visits
    to a number of countries including the United States, Israel, Palestine,
    Armenian, Syria, Lebanon and other countries.

    Historical ties bind the Catholicosate of Cilicia and the Anglican Church.
    The predecessors of Archbishop Williams have visited Antelias previously.
    Several of the Cilician Catholicoi have also paid official visits to the
    Archbishops of Canterbury.
