At Holy Etchmiadzin on Sunday, September 27, His Holiness
Karekin II, the Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians, will bless
the Holy Muron—the holy oil employed in all the church’s sacramental anointing
services—in a special ceremony at the outdoor Altar of St. Drtad.
The service is conducted by the Catholicos about every
seven years; it was last performed in 2008. Bishops from Armenian dioceses
across the world will travel to Holy Etchmiadzin on this occasion, and carry
the blessed oil back with them for distribution to local parishes. Both
Archbishop Khajag Barsamian, Diocesan Primate, and Archbishop Vicken Aykazian,
Diocesan Legate and Ecumenical Director, will take part in the service.
