Today is April 7 – the Day of Maternity and Beauty. The women’s month
that started on March 8 is coming to an end today.
During the first years of independence of the Republic of Armenia April
7 was included in the list of our holidays, taking into consideration
that for already 1 700 years the Armenian Apostolic Church has
celebrated it as the Feast of the Annunciation of the Holy Virgin Mary.
Under the high auspices of the Catholicos of All Armenians Karekin
II the Feast of the Annunciation was declared the Day of Blessing
of Maternity.
