Early this year, His Holiness Aram I announced 2009 to be the Year of the
Armenian Youth. In accordance with this theme chosen by the Pontiff, the
Dioceses of the Catholicosate of Cilicia will be organizing youth events
throughout the year.
As part of these plans, the Dioceses of Lebanon and Aleppo are jointly
organizing a youth pilgrimage to Deir Zor under the auspices of His Holiness
Aram I and with his attendance.
The pilgrimage will be held on Saturday, May 2nd 2009. A series of
spiritual, cultural and national events will be organized in Deir Zor and
Margade on this occasion. The programme will be announced soon.
We call on all the Armenian youth to take part in this historical and unique
pilgrimage.
