With these words and this spirit, you give us hope.
Your words are so convincing, so encouraging, so warm, so bright, so brave, so self-confident.
It is the heroic resistance that will save the motherland and not the pitiful foreign mercy.
We firmly stand by your side, with unbreakable will, but we humble ourselves against your heroic struggle. We appreciate, love, join your struggle and bow before you.
With love,

AMAA Artsakh Holds Camp for Youth
They are trying to eliminate us, but we live and keep others alive…
Life in Artsakh is different. To live here you must be a support for those around you. You must transmit life to others. You must fight and not give up.
Uncertainty, chaos, despair… it seems that spring will never come to your Homeland. It is difficult to work with members of the young generation who live in this chaos and convey to them hope. It is even more difficult to show them one’s share of the mission.
Once again, from August 14-18, the Armenian Missionary Association of America’s branch in Artsakh brought together many youths to encourage, give hope and teach them that each of us has something to do to build the Motherland.
We must learn to be healthy in mind, heart, soul, and the life we live so that we can pass on the same to others.
The Camp, filled with entertainment, educational and patriotic sessions, separated the children from their everyday worries and the blockade. We must all learn together by helping and uplifting each other to overcome these challenges and difficulties.
