Fr. Zargarian invited the family to come forward where they received special blessings from the Holy Altar by the hand of His Eminence.

A group of pilgrims to Jerusalem also received special blessings and prayers before joining the primate and Fr. Zargarian on pilgrimage trip departing the following day. We pray for the group to have a rewarding journey and return safely back to Canada.
