His Holiness Pope Francis will make a visit to Armenia
from June 24 to 26. The Pope will be officially welcomed to Holy Etchmiadzin by
His Holiness Karekin II, the Supreme Patrirach and Catholicos of All Armenians.
Themed “A Visit to the First Christian Nation,” the
three-day journey will include a prayer service in Yerevan’s Republic Square
and a stop at the Dzidzernagapert Genocide Memorial. Pope Francis and His
Holiness Karekin II will also preside over a Divine Liturgy in Gyumri’s
Vartanants Square. On June 26, the Divine Liturgy will be celebrated at the
Cathedral of Holy Etchmiadzin and the two spiritual leaders will visit and pray
at Khor Virab monastery—the site of St. Gregory the Illuminator’s imprisonment—prior
to Pope Francis’s departure.
Archbishop Khajag Barsamian, Primate of the Eastern
Diocese, and Archbishop Vicken Aykazian, the Diocese’s Legate and Ecumenical
Director, will travel to Armenia to take part in these events.
Viewers at home can follow the Pope's visit via Vatican
Radio's livestream video broadcasts.
