I’m already in Yerevan – fled from my ancestral & ancient homeland, Artsakh, just like my entire people. Firstly, I came to Yerablur to give thanks & apologize to our fallen heroes. Next, I went to Ejmiatsin for prayer, & then to the refugee center to help my people.

The last (for now) liturgy was held today in the Holy Mother of God Cathedral in Stepanakert. #Artsakh

The last photo of the last clergy of Dadivank. They arrived in Armenia on Oct. 1, 2023, marking that day the first time in 1722 years when no Armenian Christian prayer is heard in Artsakh / Nagorno-Karabakh. Before leaving the sacred monastery, they prayed for return.

We prayed the intercessory prayers at Badarak this past Sunday as well. It was a joy. Memory eternal. We will not falter on the path.

On the Nicene Creed ("Havadamk") and the Doxology of St. Gregory ♰֎🇦🇲 Fr. Mesrop Ash

All sorts of people indeed can suffer poverty, but to “know how to suffer poverty” is a mark of greatness. Likewise, who is there who may not abound? But to “know how to abound” belongs to none but those who are not corrupted by abundance. - Augustine of Hippo on Philippians 4:11

Kindly pray for Aleppo and for all people of Syria 🇸🇾 at these difficult and uncertain times. 🙏🙏
