Contribution’s
towards Lanjik
Parish Church in Armenia |
The
Armenian Catholic Archbishop Nishan Karakeheyan
of Armenia had recently written to Fr Basil
Sousanian, requesting financial aid to help
structurally repair the badly affected church in
the village of Lanjik; it is our intention to
make a positive response and provide the needed
funds which are estimated to be in the vicinity
of US $15,000.00;
We, therefore ask our parishioners who are able
and capable to assist and contribute towards
this worthy cause to contact Fr Basil as soon as
possible. You may also, if you so wish send your
contribution by cheque in favour of:
Armenian
Catholic Church
P.O. Box 315
Lidcombe NSW 1825
an official receipt will be
issued for all contributions made. |
Lanjik
Lanjik is near the town of
Maralik, north west Armenia. It is
38 kms south from Gyumri, going

Khachkar
[Cross-Stone]
Khachkar is
the unique manifestation of Christian
Armenian national art which in its
Christian form and type has no other
equivalent in the world. Khachkars
constitute an integral dimension of
Armenian sculptural art; with their high
artistic standards and strong national
character, they also occupy their worthy
position in the treasury of
international art. |
Khachkars are also an
expression of the Christian faith and
high esthetics taste of the Armenian
nation, nation that was first to
officially adopt the Christian faith in
the year 301 of Our Lord
Saviour. Recently in the deep
respect and commemoration of the
Khachkar by the International community,
a Khachkar was placed in the front
entrance of the Main Hall of the United
Nations in New York.
