His Holiness Zareh I Payaslian (Armenian: Զարեհ Ա. Փայասլյան ) (? - died Beirut, Lebanon, 1963) was Catholicos of Cilicia of the Armenian Apostolic Church from 1956 to 1953. He was the first graduate of the Seminary of Antelias of the Catholicossate. Before his election as Catholicos of Cilicia, he served as Primate of Aleppo, Syria for 16 years. He was elected during very acrimonious times between various Armenian political factions that had left the position vacant for around 4 years since the death of the Catholicoss Karekin I in 1952.
