ETCHMIADZIN. - The Catholicos of All Armenians Karekin II on Wednesday
received the students from the Mkhitarian College of Buenos Aires,
Argentina, and the Hamazkaine Arshak and Sophie Galstaun School of
Sydney, Australia.
The Catholicos noted with delight that the students' annual pilgrimage
to Armenia and the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin has become a
wonderful tradition.
He underscored the role which the visits to the Motherland play in the
lives of Diaspora-Armenian youth, since it is owing to these trips
that they remain in contact with the Motherland's realities, and see
with their own eyes those treasures which they were taught in school.
In Karekin II's conviction, direct contact with the Motherland's
treasures strengthens the students' national spirit, awareness, and
zeal.
The Catholicos also extended his gratitude to the teachers, trustees,
and heads of the two schools.
