soldiers-companions, proclaimed the day of youth’s blessing is
celebrated. Captain St. Sarkis is one of the most beloved saints among
the Armenian nation, who together with his 14 soldiers-companions
was martyred for the sake of Christian faith.

The youngsters connect fulfillment of their wishes with St. Sarkis. On
the previous night, January 29, they have salty scones hoping to
dream of their special someone.

by blessing of the youth.
