Holy See of Cilicia
The origin of the Armenian Church dates back to the Apostolic age and according to the ancient tradition was established by St. Thaddeus and St. Bartholomew.The monastery of St. Sophia of Sis, home of the Catholicosate, dominates the town in early 20th-century photographs.[4] In 1441, a new Catholicos of All Armenians was elected in Holy Etchmiadzin in the person of Kirakos I Virapetsi of Armenia.In 1922 the American Committee for Relief in the Near East established an orphanage in Antilias for survivors of the genocide.[5] The Catholicossate has its own publishing house and has a number of publications, most notably the monthly "Hask" (in Armenian Հասկ), the official organ of the Holy See of Cilicia.
