Citizens of Armenia have gathered in the courtyard of the St. Gayane Church to express their support to the Catholicos of All Armenians and the servants of the Armenian Holy Apostolic Church against whom the government’s supporters have made calls for violence.

“Dear compatriots, sisters and brothers in mourning, this Sunday, December 27, the last Holy Mass of the year will be served at all Armenian churches. Let’s participate in the homily and express our support to the Armenian Holy Apostolic Church, pray for the steadfastness of Armenia, for the souls of our heroic martyrs to rest in peace and renew our faith and unite around the upcoming victories of Armenia with our prayer for unity and solidarity.”
