POPE FRANCIS AND CATHOLICOS ARAM MEET
`Your solidarity with the Armenians during the 100th Anniversary
Commemorations of the Genocide will be a valuable contribution to our
just cause’ (Catholicos Aram)
`The history of emigration, persecutions and the martyrdom experienced
by so many of the faithful has inflicted deep wounds on the hearts of
all Armenians. We must see and venerate these as wounds inflicted on
the very body of Christ.’ (Pope Francis)
Following a private meeting between Pope Francis and Catholicos Aram
I, Pope Francis and Catholicos Aram met with the delegation that
accompanied the
Catholicos. In his speech the Catholicos noted that since 1997 he has
had the opportunity to meet Popes John Paul II, Benedict XVI, and
currently, His Holiness Francis I.
Catholicos Aram I then spoke of the special relations between the
Roman Catholic Church and the Catholicosate of Cilicia during the time
of the Kingdom of Cilicia and after the Genocide when the Holy See
settled in Antelias,
Lebanon.
The Catholicos expressed his appreciation of the Pope’s effort to take
the church to the people, which he said is also at the heart of the
Armenian Orthodox Church and to which it is fully committed. He
invited all churches to leave confessional differences aside and face
together the urgent challenges confronting humanity.
Speaking of the Middle East, the Catholicos said that despite the
current violence in the region, Christians would continue to witness
for their faith, fulfill their duties, and demand their rights as
citizens of their countries.
Speaking about the Centenary of the Armenian Genocide that will be
commemorated in 2015, the Catholicos thanked the Pope for his past
positions towards the Armenian cause and spoke of the
one-and-a-half-million Armenians that had lost their lives and of the
churches, homes, sources of livelihood, spiritual and cultural
heritage that had been lost in the Genocide that had been perpetrated
upon the Armenians by the Ottoman Turks. The Catholicos paid tribute
to Pope Benedict XV who denounced the Armenian Genocide in a letter to
Sultan Mehmet V in 1915. The Catholicos asked the Pope to continue
advocating for the rights of the Armenian People.
In his response, Pope Francis, noted that Catholicos Aram’s
=80=9Ccommitment to the cause of Christian unity is known to all. You
have been especially active in the World Council of Churches and you
continue to be most supportive of the Middle East Council Churches,
which plays such an important role in assisting the Christian
communities of that region as they face numerous difficulties. Nor can
I fail to mention the significant contribution which Your Holiness and
the representatives of the Catholicosate of Cilicia have made to the
Joint Commission for Theological Dialogue between the Catholic Church
and the Oriental Orthodox Churches. I am convinced that on our journey
towards full communion we share the same hopes and a similar sense of
responsibility as we strive to be faithful to the will of the
Lord Jesus Christ.’
Referring to the Armenian Genocide, the Pope said `the Armenian people
represent a part of the Christian world that is irrevocably marked by
a history of trials and sufferings courageously accepted for the love
of God. The Armenian Apostolic Church has had to become a pilgrim
people; it has
experienced in a singular way what it means to journey towards the
Kingdom
of God. The history of emigration, persecutions and martyrdom
experienced by so many of the faithful has inflicted deeps wounds on
the hearts of all Armenians. We must see and venerate these as wounds
inflicted on the very body of Christ, and for this very reason a cause
for unfailing hope and trust in the provident mercy of the father.’
At the end of formal speeches, the two Pontiffs and the delegation
accompanying Catholicos Aram I, coming from Europe, the Middle East,
and North and
South America, attended a special prayer service. Following the
service, the delegates were formally introduced to the Pope.

BIBLE READINGS
Bible readings for Sunday, June 15, First Sunday after Pentecost,
(Beginning of Sundays of Resurrection) are: 1 Kings 18:29-46; 2 Kings
2:1-15; James
5:16-20; Luke 4:25-30.
Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another,
so that you may be healed. The prayer of the righteous is powerful and
effective. Elijah was a human being like us, and he prayed fervently
that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not
rain on the earth. Then he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain and
the earth yielded its harvest.
My brothers and sisters, if anyone among you wanders from the truth
and is
brought back by another, you should know that whoever brings back a
sinner
from wandering will save the sinner’s soul from death and will cover a
multitude of sins. (James 5:16-20)

REMEMBRANCE OF THE PROPHET ELIJAH
This Sunday, June 15, the Armenian Church commemorates the Feast of
Elijah, the Messianic prophet of the Old Testament recorded in 1 and 2
Kings. Elijah was the greatest prophet in the Old Testament and
therefore his feast day falls on a Sunday. He appeared along with
Moses at the Transfiguration as the prophet of life and the new
covenant; Moses was representative of the
old covenant. The Armenian Church (like all the Eastern churches)
holds Elijah in the highest esteem. Most importantly, Elijah did not
experience death, but was taken to heaven, like the Holy Mother of
God. He is mentioned in the Armenian hymn Ee Verin, sung during the
Requiem Service.
`Receive us in Jerusalem above, in the dwellings of the angels, in
Eden, the paradise where Enoch and Elijah live worthily resplendent in
dove-like purity and in old age. O merciful Lord, have mercy upon the
souls of
ours who have fallen asleep.’
(From the Armenian hymn Ee Verin Yerousaghem (Receive us in Jerusalem
above), sung during the Requiem Service.)
SAINTS HRIPSIME AND GAYANE AND THEIR COMPANIONS
This Monday and Tuesday, June 16 and 17, the Armenian Church
commemorates the virgin saints Hripsime and Gayane and their
companions. Thirty-three nuns, led by Gayane, left Rome and sought
refuge in Armenia hoping to escape the Roman Emperor who desired one
of the nuns, the beautiful Hripsime. In Armenia, King Dertad became
captivated by Hripsime’s beauty and sought to wed her. She
refused. Enraged, the king had Hripsime (and the other nuns)
imprisoned and tortured to death.
When Gregory was released from his imprisonment in the deep pit (Khor
Virab) he built chapels over the relics of the nuns, which Catholicos
Sahag Bartev later renovated. During the 7th century, churches were
built over both sites. The church dedicated to Saint Hripsime, built
by Catholicos Gomidas,
is considered to be an architectural masterpiece and influenced the
future
course of Armenian architecture. Catholicos Gomidas also wrote a
sharagan (hymn) in their memory-the well-known Antsink Nviryalk
(Dedicated Beings).
The two churches, as well as a third (Shoghakat) are in the city of
Etchmiadzin (Vagharshapat), not far from the complex of buildings that
comprise the Holy Mother See of Etchmiadzin, designated by UNESCO as a
World Heritage
site.
THIS WEEK IN ARMENIAN HISTORY
(Prepared by the Armenian National Education Committee[ANEC])
Birth of Tigran Petrosian
(June 17, 1929)
Armenia was not an independent state in the 1960s, when Tigran the
Great was the king of the world. Tigran Petrosian put Armenia and
Armenians on the
world map of chess. His almost impenetrable defensive playing style
earned
him the nickname `Iron Tigran’ by Soviet grandmaster Lev Polugaievsky.
Petrosian was born in Tiflis on June 17, 1929. He learned to play
chess at
the age of 8, though his father, who was illiterate, encouraged him to
continue studying. He was orphaned during World War II and was forced
to sweep
streets to earn a living.
He began training at the Tiflis Pioneers’ Palace in 1941, and became a
candidate Master at the age of 17 (1946). He then moved to Yerevan and
won the Armenian chess championship. He earned the title of Master
during the USSR junior chess championship of 1947.
After moving to Moscow in 1949, Petrosian’s career as a chess player
advanced rapidly. In 1951 and 1952 he earned the titles of
International Master and Grandmaster. In the tournament of candidates
for world championship of 1953, he arrived in fifth position. After
the 1956 candidates’ tournament, he made a turnaround in his
production. He went on to win the 1959 and 1961 USSR championships,
and after winning the candidates’ tournament of 1962 in Curacao, he
earned the right to challenge Mikhail Botvinnik, another Soviet
player, for the title of world chess champion. Petrosian
won the match in 1963 with a final score of 12.5 to 9.5.
Upon becoming world champion, Petrosian became editor-in-chief of the
chess monthly Shakhmatnaya Moskva (1963-1966) and campaigned for the
publication of a chess newspaper for the entire Soviet Union. This
newspaper became known as 64. He would become its founding editor from
1968-1977. He earned a
Ph.D. in Philosophical Science at Yerevan State University in 1968,
with his dissertation entitled `Chess Logics: Some Problems of Logic
of Chess Thought.’
After successfully defending his crown in 1966 against Boris Spassky,
Petrosian, who had won the Soviet championship in 1969, was challenged
again by
the same player in the same year. This time, Spassky won the match by
12.5-10.5.
The Armenian player continued his career and participated four more
times in the candidates’ tournament (1971, 1974, 1977, and 1980). He
won again the Soviet championship in 1975. He participated as a
representative of the USSR in ten Chess Olympiads from 1958-1978,
where he obtained the third all-best performance of all times (79.5
per cent, with only one defeat on 129 games) and won six individual
gold medals.
Petrosian photographed during a match with rival Bobby Fischer in
Belgrad,
Yugoslavia, 1970.
In his 1973 book on grandmasters of chess, New York Times journalist
Harold C. Schonberg said that `playing him was like trying to put
handcuffs on an eel. There was nothing to grip.’ Boris Spassky,
Petrosian’s successor, described his style of play: `Petrosian reminds
me of a hedgehog. Just when you think you have caught him, he puts out
his quills.”
Petrosian passed away of stomach cancer in Moscow on August 13,
1984. He was buried in the cemetery of Vagankovo, where world chess
champion Garry Kasparov unveiled a memorial on his grave in 1987,
depicting the laurel wreath of a world champion and an image contained
within a crown of the sun shining above the twin peaks of Mount
Ararat. In the district of Davtashen, in Yerevan, a monument honoring
the world-famous player was opened in 2006 on the street that carries
his name.
Tigran Petrosian contributed enormously to popularize chess in
Armenia. The country became a great power in the chess world after
independence. Grandmaster Tigran L. Petrosian, born a month after his
death, was named after him.
