AOOIC Anglican Oriental Orthodox International Commission
Anglican–Oriental Orthodox International Commission Communiqué 2018 The Anglican–Oriental Orthodox International Commission held its seventh meeting from 22–26 October 2018 at the Syriac Orthodox Patriarchal Residence, Atchaneh, Lebanon. The Commission greatly appreciated the generous hospitality of His Holiness Mor Ignatius Aphrem II, Patriarch of Antioch and All the East, and the kindness of the sisters of the Mor Jacob Baradeus Convent, and all those assisting His Holiness. The Commission noted with deep sadness the recent passing of one of its founder-members and its former Oriental Orthodox Co-Chair, His Eminence Metropolitan Bishoy of Damietta. The Commission gave thanks for his contribution to Anglican–Oriental Orthodox relations, and for his leadership in the ecumenical movement. The Commission offered prayers for the repose of his soul, and continues to hold his diocese in its prayers. The Procession and Work of the Holy Spirit, the agreed statement of the 2017 meeting of the Commission, was published in October 2018. It is dedicated to Metropolitan Bishoy, ‘monk, bishop, theologian, champion of the Orthodox faith and unity of the Church’. The members of the Commission welcome the unanimous elections, by its Oriental Orthodox members, of His Eminence Archbishop Angaelos of London as the new Oriental Orthodox Co-Chair and of the Very Revd Dr Roger Akhrass as the new Oriental Orthodox Co- Secretary. The Commission resumed its work on Authority in the Church, with papers on bishops and synods (councils), and the Ecumenical Councils. It seeks to draw on established ecumenical agreements in the framework of this Commission, and the distinctive characteristics of the two families of Churches. -

Syriac Sacred Chant: It's Role in Shaping Liturgical Life
SYRIAC SACRED CHANT: IT’S ROLE IN SHAPING LITURGICAL LIFE AND COMMUNAL IDENTITY OF THE SYRIAC COMMUNITY By Gabriel Aydin So outstanding is the nature of Syriac sacred music—when the sacred word (text) is fused with the sound (music) creates an extra ordinary power through which the faithful can attain their spiritual goals and lift themselves up from the ordinary to the higher level of consciousness— that the Syriac poet-theologians and hymnographers chose this phenomenon 1600 years ago to knit their prose and poetry that laid the foundation of Syriac rich musical heritage. Their hymns give not only religious reference to and offers a strong view of the liturgical rite and faith of the Syriac church, but also forms an important part of the Syriac both religious and cultural identity, ideology, symbols, moral values, and the collective cultural memory of Syriac Christians. A very short overview of the Syriac chant will promote our understanding as well as the significance of this musical phenomenon. Syriac sacred chant, is one of the oldest existing chant traditions (similar to the western tradition of plainsong), composed in Syriac, a dialect of Aramaic, the language that was spoken by Jesus Christ, together with their melodies. Among the large number of distinct features that are embedded in Syriac sacred chant, a) simplicity in text and melody (so that the theological reasoning that lays behind the text would be easily comprehended by diverse communities, simple worshippers and monastics to embrace the Word of God), b) along with sacred text, various musical characteristics of Syriac chant such as the microtonal variation of intervals, words in metrics, the melodic construction, dynamics, modal system of eight—which represent the impressive formulae of the earlier evolution of the Syriac church in the field of ecclesiastical music—are a couple of vital entities that function in tandem to produce a consistent, compelling, and spiritual sacred chant. -

A Struggle for Genocide Recognition: How the Aramean, Assyrian, and Chaldean Diasporas Link Past and Present
A Struggle for Genocide Recognition: How the Aramean, Assyrian, and Chaldean Diasporas Link Past and Present Sofia Mutlu-Numansen Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/hgs/article-abstract/33/3/412/5702584 by Universiteit Twente user on 10 March 2020 University of Twente, the Netherlands Marinus Ossewaarde University of Twente, the Netherlands This article analyzes how Aramean, Assyrian, and Chaldean communities in Western Europe organize their struggle for Sayfo (genocide) recognition and how narratives of the past are enacted in their campaign. The year 2015 provided a unique opportunity to study such diasporic communities’ strategic uses of the past. Hundreds of centenary commemorations were organized all over the world. The authors have selected three that illustrate how the Sayfo recognition campaign was organized, and how its practi- tioners strategically use the past in their efforts. Since Charles Taylor’s 1992 Multiculturalism and the Politics of Recognition and Axel Honneth’s 1995 The Struggle for Recognition, studies of marginalized groups—including one-time victims of genocide—increasingly reflect struggles for recognitionTaylor ( 1992; Honneth 1995; Savage 2013; Maia 2014; MacQueen 2015). How do such groups organize to pursue recognition, and how do they enact their narratives of the past in those campaigns? Here we discuss the efforts of the Aramean, Assyrian, and Chaldean diasporic communities of the Netherlands, Germany, and Sweden toward international recognition of their experience of genocide—known as the Sayfo (from -
Exchanging Best Practices in the Integration of Assyrians in Europe (EPIA) 2012 – 2014
Exchanging Best Practices in the Integration of Assyrians in Europe (EPIA) 2012 – 2014 Final Project Documentation Abdulmesih BarAbraham, Soner Önder & Fatrus Gabriel (Eds.) This project has been funded with support from the European Commission. This publication (communication) reflects the views only of the author, and the Commission cannot be held responsible for any use which may be made of the information contained therein. EPIA (2012 – 2014) 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Grundtvig Learning Partnership 'Exchanging Best Practices in the Integration of Assyrians in Europe' (EPIA) has aimed to exchange experiences of Assyrians in the field of integration in Europe, map problems and challenges, and promote best practices. The partners represented institutions of Assyrians in four different European countries (NL, SE, DE, BE). Since the 1960s, Assyrians have emigrated and established themselves in large numbers (about 300.000) in Europe. Already from the beginning their journey to Europe was a 'one-way ticket'; they burned their ships behind them to establish themselves for good in Europe. To a great extent, this first intention has influenced the way they have oriented and established themselves in Europe. Nevertheless, integration into modern Western societies led to a comprehensive societal transformation, and introduced new problems and challenges for the group. This partnership project has aimed to evaluate the 50-years of settlement of Assyrians in Europe, develop more insight in the processes of the integration, to exchange experienced problem and challenges, and to map best practices in the field of integration. In order to realize the envisaged aims and objectives, the project has focused on educational activities. -

Doç. Dr. Süleyman SAYAR Anadolu coğrafyasının kadim topluluklardan biri olan Süryaniler, 20. yüzyılın ikinci yarısında Avrupa’ya kitlesel bir göç gerçekleştirmişlerdir. Bu göçün ekonomik, sosyo-politik ve dinî olmak üzere muhtelif nedenlerinden söz edilebilir. 1960’larda misafir işçi (gastarbeiter) olarak başlayan bu göç, 1975’ten sonra mülteci olarak devam etmiştir. Göç edilen ülkelerinden birisi de Hollanda olmuş ve Avrupa’daki ilk Süryani Ortodoks Kilisesi piskoposluğu burada kurulmuştur. Hollanda’da günümüz itibariyle sayıları 15 bini bulan Süryaniler, toplumsal hayatta aktif roller almaktadırlar; politikacı, yazar, avukat, futbolcu gibi nitelikli insanlar yetiştirmektedirler. Bu çalışmada, Süryanilerin Hollanda’ya göç nedenleri, göç sonrası karşılaştıkları sorunlar, mevcut kilise ve cemaatleri, sahip oldukları sivil toplum kuruluşları medya kuruluşları, din-kimlik ilişkisi, toplumsal hayatta din adamlarının rolü gibi konular incelenmektedir.

Chapter Six Death Throes for Indigenous Christians in the Middle East: Assyrians Living Under the Islamic State (Is)
CHAPTER SIX DEATH THROES FOR INDIGENOUS CHRISTIANS IN THE MIDDLE EAST: ASSYRIANS LIVING UNDER THE ISLAMIC STATE (IS) Naures Atto Christianity emerged in the Middle East, became a majority religion, and thereafter expanded into various geographical directions. Although the faith suffered a decline under Arab Muslim rule already in the eleventh century, the region nonetheless remained an important spiritual centre of Christianity until about the thirteenth century. Today, however, local Christians express fear about the end of their existence in this region, their ancestral home. This fear is also shared by scholars and experts who ask whether Christianity has a future in the Middle East (Jenkins 2004, Tamcke 2016). In the collective memory of Assyrians1, their traumatic past – transmitted through generations – continues to play a central role in their life (Atto 2017). One could say that each generation has experienced a form of continued dispossession, accumulated in the inherited memory of individuals. For example, together with Armenians and Greeks, Assyrians worldwide began 2014 with preparations for the commemoration of the centennial of the 1915 genocide of the Christians in Ottoman Turkey. Yet in 2014 they were confronted with yet another genocide; another systematic and intentional attempt to destroy their people, this time occurring in the present. Today, Christian communities in the Middle East are targeted by the Islamic State (IS) and other radical militant Islamist groups. Areas occupied by IS in Syria and 1 Assyrians is used here as a cross-denominational name for the various oriental churches in the Syriac tradition; it can be used synonymous with Syriacs and Arameans.
