The Cathedral of Holy Etchmiadzin is not only a special church for me, this stone temple seems to be a living spiritual being, a spiritual parent who shaped and educated me in his womb, gradually turning me from a worldly believer into a servant of God's house. It was in the Cathedral of St. Etchmiadzin that I, a student of the Gevorgyan Theological Seminary, received the first four degrees of the scribe of our Church. In the Cathedral I received the right to bear an oration, in the Cathedral I was ordained a deacon and, finally, in the Cathedral I was ordained a priest. More than once I thought with a shudder that I was praying in the place where the Only Begotten Son of God descended and where for centuries the greatest, brightest faces of our Church, the real saints, was praying.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, our spiritual life lacked an essential value: the Cathedral did not work, it was under reconstruction. I look forward to a happy moment with great excitement when in a few months the cathedral will be re-consecrated and will start functioning again. And the heart of the Armenian Church will beat again, bringing its life-giving blessing to our churches around the world. <\/p>\n<p><strong>May the Lord unshakably preserve the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin established by Him.<\/strong>:<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0531\u0575\u057d\u0585\u0580 \u053f\u0561\u0569\u0578\u0572\u056b\u056f\u0565 \u054d. \u0537\u057b\u0574\u056b\u0561\u056e\u0576\u056b \u057f\u0578\u0576\u0576 \u0567, \u0578\u0580\u0576 \u0561\u0576\u0571\u0561\u0574\u0562 \u056b\u0576\u0571 \u0570\u0561\u0574\u0561\u0580 \u0561\u0574\u0565\u0576\u0561\u0576\u057e\u056b\u0580\u0561\u056f\u0561\u0576 \u057f\u0578\u0576\u0565\u0580\u056b\u0581 \u0574\u0565\u056f\u0576 \u0567: \u0537\u057b\u0574\u056b\u0561\u056e\u0576\u056b \u0544\u0561\u0575\u0580 \u054f\u0561\u0573\u0561\u0580\u0576 \u056b\u0576\u0571 \u0570\u0561\u0574\u0561\u0580 \u0561\u0576\u0563\u0561\u0574 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10627,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10624","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/artsakhdiocese.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10624","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/artsakhdiocese.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/artsakhdiocese.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artsakhdiocese.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artsakhdiocese.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10624"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/artsakhdiocese.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10624\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artsakhdiocese.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10627"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/artsakhdiocese.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10624"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artsakhdiocese.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10624"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artsakhdiocese.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10624"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
