Visit to the Kharberd Orphanage

30.07.2012

A group of young Armenians from the Western Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church of North America toured Armenia and visited the orphanage of Kharberd, Yerevan. The pilgrims were in Armenia for two weeks with the purpose of helping more than 300 orphans in the orphanage who have mental and physical disabilities. It has become tradition for the graduates of the Marie Manoogian School of Argentina, the Toronto Chapter of the Scouts and the St. Sahak-St. Mesrob Saturday School students of Canada, to visit the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin every year as pilgrims and receive the blessings of the Catholicos of All Armenians.
