Catholicos of All Armenians Bestows His Blessing upon Clergy Participating in Training Courses
26.02.2025
On February 26, His Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians, received priests from various dioceses of Armenia and the Diaspora who gathered to participate in the training courses.
With a paternal blessing for the spiritual fathers, the Armenian Pontiff emphasized the vital importance of the training courses. These courses provide the clergy with an invaluable opportunity to deepen their theological knowledge, reaffirm their vows, draw strength from the sacred presence of Holy Etchmiadzin, share experiences with one another, and strengthen inter-community ties—each of which will enhance the effectiveness of their ministry.
Recognizing the challenges faced by the Armenian people, the Catholicos of All Armenians urged the priests to confront these difficulties with a profound sense of responsibility, courage, and unwavering dedication. He called on them to guide the faithful along the path of faith and true values, in service to the strengthening of the Armenian Apostolic Holy Church and the well-being of the Armenian people.
