Pilgrimage to Tatev
Purpose of the project
The goal of the pilgrimage is to bring together our AAU graduates and current students around a shared ideology. It aims to support their spiritual growth, foster closer connections through the pilgrimage, encourage prayers for one another, and provide the opportunity for self-reflection and introspection to receive divine messages. The pilgrimage also seeks to connect participants with our rich spiritual heritage and enrich them with divine knowledge, preparing them to be worthy heirs of eternal life.

Implementation of the project
From September 6 to 8, 2024, a group of 11 participants from the Armenian Apostolic Church embarked on an unforgettable spiritual journey to the Tatev Monastery, blessed by the organization’s spiritual pastor, Father Petros Malyan. Over the course of three incredible days, we immersed ourselves in prayer, liturgies, and the Divine Liturgy, surrounded by the peace and beauty of the monastery and its landscape. We were blessed with the opportunity to meet and receive the blessings of Father Sahak and Father Michael. This pilgrimage served as a time of renewal and unity, deepening our connection to faith and community. The pilgrimage was organized by Greta Gevorgyan, a graduate of the CLLD program.
