PONTIFICAL VISIT REENERGIZES PRELACY PARISHES

In the first stretch of his pontifical visit to the jurisdiction of the Eastern Prelacy, His Holiness Catholicos Aram I engaged with parishioners of all ages and walks of life. In his public pronouncements about the need to revitalize the community structures, His Holiness has often highlighted the primary role of the parishes in this mission. In his proclamations of 2022 and 2023, the Catholicos envisions the parish as the basic cell that will lead the effort toward rebirth and renewal.
