THE FAITHFUL LIVE A HISTORICAL DAY IN ANTELIAS
The Armenian women gathering in the Saint Gregory the Illuminator
Cathedral for prayers every Tuesday lived a historical day on March 27, when
they bowed in prayers before Saint Gregory's relic.
Following the usual discussion of a different topic every week and the
teaching of hymns, Rev. Torkom Donoyan, director of the Christian Education
Department guided the women to the Holy Trinity altar where the faithful
group kneeled down in front of the newly placed relic, saying prayers and
singing "Der Voghormya". It was a touching moment of spiritual renewal for
each of the more than 100 women, who, in their prayers, didn't forget to
mention their children, husbands, grandchildren and other family members.
The relic, placed permanently in the Mother Cathedral, by His Holiness
Aram I during the Antelias "Pilgrimage Day" on 25 March 2007, has already
started to receive pilgrims and visitors on a daily basis. Believers kneel
down before the Holy Trinity altar, warmly praying in front of the remnants
of the Armenian Church's Patron Saint.
