Diocesan Primate Bishop Mesrop Parsamyan visited AGBU’s Camp Nubar over the weekend of July 27-28, to visit with the campers and celebrate the camp’s 60th anniversary.
“It was a weekend filled with laughter, joy, and the beautiful presence of our youth coming together in faith and fellowship,” Bishop Mesrop said. “Moments like these remind us of the incredible legacy we share—a legacy that shows the power of community and the strength we find when we unite in purpose and love.”
On Sunday, the Primate celebrated badarak in the open air, by the serene waters of the camp’s lake. “As the sun shone down and a gentle breeze rustled through the trees, I was deeply moved by the sense of togetherness and the palpable presence of God among us,” the Primate said.
He concluded: “I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the AGBU leadership, the Camp Nubar board, staff, and organizers. Your warm hospitality and hard work have created a nurturing environment where our young Armenians can grow in faith and fellowship.”
