“Christ as Hope” is new module from the Eastern Diocese’s digital ministries platform, VEMKAR, which is set to make its online debut on Tuesday, July 6.
Servant of a Personal God
Elisha the Prophet (the saint remembered by the Armenian Church this year on July 1) was a wonderworker whose miracles—healing the diseased, the multiplication of loaves, raising a child from death—anticipated those of Christ.
The Man Who Remembered God
Every year, the Armenian Church reserves a day in its liturgical calendar to remember one of the more obscure figures of the Old Testament: the Prophet Zechariah. This year his saint day falls on June 29.
The Saints of Summer
In an ordinary year, by the end of June schools are winding down, summer is gearing up, and many parishioners settle into a more “relaxed” habit of church participation.
Recent summers, of course, have been anything but ordinary.
Fatherhood: Privilege, Duty, Blessing
This Sunday will be observed as Father’s Day across the United States: a chance to reflect, with gratitude, on the deeper meaning of fatherhood. While the surrounding popular culture may sometimes fail to treat fatherhood with due seriousness, the Armenian Church accords great reverence and respect to fathers.
