    ACUS A MEMBERS VISIT THE ARMENIAN ELDERLY


    The Armenian Church's University Students Association (ACUSA) paid a visit
    on February 3 to the National Elderly Home, creating enthusiasm in the
    Armenian elderly sheltered there. The visit to this institution has become
    part of ACUSA's annual program.

    ACUSA members visited "KAHL" with their spiritual adviser, Rev. Fr. Mesrob
    Sarkissian, who conveyed His Holiness Aram I's greetings and blessings to
    the Armenian elderly. The visit lasted over two hours, during which ACUSA
    members entertained the elderly, at the same time having the opportunity to
    benefit from their life experience.

    Armenian university students took a short break that day from their heavy
    daily agenda to take a lesson about life from their elderly hosts, who
    shared with them their painful as well as joyous experiences. The visit
    presented an opportunity for spiritual renewal and an appreciation of the
    obligation to attend to the needs of the nation. ACUSA members returned home
    with great self-satisfaction ready to return on their next visit.

    ACUSA was founded several years ago with the blessings of His Holiness Aram
    I and serves under the patronage of the Catholicosate of Cilicia. Its
    headquarters is located in Antelias.
