"The Ritual Language": an educational project

Today was an exciting and impressive day for us.  For the first time in our lives we took part in the morning divine service at Saint Trinity Church with special church shirts on. Psalms, prayers, preaches and Armenian church songs, people praying in church, expressive and mysterious icons, which seemed to have got new breath and soul seeing us, fair and a little naughty students. We came out of the cell accompanied by Holy Father and stood there as candle holders listening to the readings from the testament. That was our tiny pilgrimage today: we prayed for our fatherland, parents, friends and close relations being participants of the church ritual.
