ARMENIAN CHURCH RE-OPENED IN INDIA
Support A1+!On December 5 the fully constructed Armenian church of St. Mariam of Saydibad opened its doors again for the whole Indian-Armenian community.
The church which was built in 1758 by famous merchant from Jugha Khoja Petros, did not work for the last 50 years. The church suffered from a number of natural disasters. Today the church has been fully restored thanks to the efforts of the Calcutta church administration and the blessings of Catholicos of All Armenians Garegin II. The territories of the church have also been returned.
Members of the church administration and the Indian-Armenian community, as well as foreign guests were present at the ceremony of opening.
