You were asking what the word AMEN was all about. Literally, it means "So Be
It". In the bible, it says that our prayers are answered before we even utter
them. So when you make a statement, followed by amen, you are literally putting
the truth out there and making it so.
My understanding of the connections between AUM and christianity is that AUM
also means "I am", which is the only "name" that God tells us that he can be
"called".
This is probably not the typical explanation that you would get from an ordained
minister. But it definitely my understanding after years of interest and experience.Hope this helps,

Another link to the indian roots of christianity I suppose.
