Armenians, His Holiness Garegin II, has received committee members
of the 4th Armenian Olympic committee, led by the minister of youth
and sports, Samvel Khachatryan, and committee vice-president Roland
Sharoyan.
The Catholicos expressed appreciation for the service these youth are
giving the homeland, offering his blessings to committee members. He
noted the importance of the games, in that they offer Armenian
youth from around the world the opportunity to visit the homeland
and connect with the land of Armenia. "It is getting to know the
homeland that enables one to maintain Armenianism while living in
the Diaspora," the Catholicos noted, adding that such events are what
gives Diaspora Armenians a close tie to Armenia, while strengthening
faith and national consciousness.
