The Armenian Apostolic Church celebrated the birthday of the Holy Virgin Mary on September 8. Mary was the long-awaited child of pious parents Joachim and Anna. According to the sacred tradition, both receive the good news through an angel. Mary is considered the child of the covenant, because the parents, upon receiving the good news, promise to give their child to the temple. Mary is born 15 or 16 years before Christ, grows up in the temple whose high priest was Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist.
