The representatives of the youth organizations arrived in Gandzasar
for a meeting with Archbishop Pargev Martirosyan with proposals on how
to fight sects. Over 50 young people took part in the meeting, who
discussed all the proposals on prevention of spread of sects. There
were different proposals. Some said the best method is to provide
information on sects and the treat they pose (for instance, through
brochures). Others said the priests of the Armenian Apostolic
Church should get in touch with the pasture more actively. There
were proposals on revising the way of teaching history of religion
at schools.
There were other proposals as well, which Pargev Martirosyan promised
to study. It was decided to set up a youth council to coordinate
further activities together with the Armenian Apostolic Church.
The construction of churches in some areas was discussed as
well. According to the pastor of the Artsakh Diocese, construction
of churches is slow due to the lack of funding. He appreciated the
benefactors who finance the construction of churches in different
parts of the country.
At the end of the meeting, the participants wrote a call for unity,
which will stay at Gandzasar Monastery.
