On Sunday, June 3, students and teachers of St. Illuminator’s Sunday school gathered in the church hall and presented their donation to the Prelacy of funds they raised for the Nor Giligia project. Nor Giligia is a village in Artsakh whose renovation is being sponsored by the Holy See of Cilicia. The Eastern Prelacy has agreed to sponsor the cost of building four new homes. As parents and parishioners looked on, the students gave Deacon Shant Kazanjian, the director of the Prelacy’s Armenian Religious Education Council, an envelope containing $500 that they had collected through various means for this cause. The money will be presented to His Holiness Catholicos Aram I, during his pontifical visit to the Eastern Prelacy in October.
