Since you're sharing a forum here, I wondered if you were in communion with each other? Is the Orthodox church in Armenia under His Holiness Pope Shenouda III?

The Armenian Apostolic Church have their own Patriarch--his name, i forgot for the moment--so they are not under Pope Shenouda III, but we are in communion with them. We are both considered Oriental Orthodox Churches, so if I wanted to attend an Armenian Apostolic Church that would be fine.

God Bless,

Armenians are in full communion with all OO.
I think the title of our forum is confusing Coptic & Oriental Orthodox.
Coptics are Oriental Orthodox also we should be called The ancient way.

Yes. we are in communion and the Armenian Patriarch is His Holiness His Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians. I had the honor as being one of the sub-deacons in his procession for Liturgy last Sunday when he was visiting from Armenia. Additionally, I would like to add, most of the ancient Church fathers are from the Eastern Churchs (the Fathers of the Desert).
