“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”
– Luke 2:14
Peace that is independent of external circumstances and situations. The good news of Christmas was a proclamation of peace for all of us including the kids, teenagers and their parents forcibly displaced from Artsakh.
From December 23 to January 15, more than five dozen events were organized in more than 30 settlements of Armenia, including border villages, during which more than 10,000 children and teenagers enjoyed the warm festive atmosphere and received gifts.
Here are some nice moments captured by our camera.
YEREVAN
For two days, with 7 sessions, more than 2,200 children enjoyed a unique performance dedicated to Christmas by our “Hayasa” theater troupe at 18 Baghramyan Ave., Yerevan.
The little ones took home with them candles symbolizing God’s light, as well as bags full of helpful gifts and games.
