    THE BEIRUT MARONITE ARCHBISHOP VISITS CATHOLICOS ARAM I

    The Beirut Maronite Archbishop, Mgr Boulos Matar visited the Catholicosate
    of Cilicia on January 3 and held talks with His Holiness Aram I.

    The two discussed the continuous postponement of the presidential elections
    in Lebanon. Archbishop Matar conveyed Patriarch Sfeir's thoughts on the
    issue.

    The Armenian Pontiff and his guest also talked about the reorganization of
    the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC). The MECC Assembly last month
    elected Catholicos Aram I as one of the presidents of the Council.
    Archbishop Matar asked the Catholicos to employ his long experience in the
    ecumenical field in the service of reviewing MECC's mission and activities
    in the region.
