FROM HEART TO HEART

For years, the St. Nerses the Great charitable organization and the Hope and Life charity have jointly held the Big Family summer camp in Armenia, initially conceived by Archpriest Fr. Aram Stepanian, Pastor Emeritus of St. Stephen’s Church (New Britain, Connecticut), and organized with local volunteers. This year it has attracted 150 participants. It is with great satisfaction that we note the support provided by the clergy and the parishes of the Eastern Prelacy, encouraging the spiritual and intellectual growth of our youth.
