ArmInfo.The RA NA Standing Committees on Defense and Security and on Health Care and Social Affairs, together with the Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem and the "Soldier's House" rehabilitation center, have developed a charity program, within which on May 26, six servicemen wounded during the 44-day war will visit Jerusalem as pilgrims. This was reported by the press service of the Parliament.
According to the head of the Defense and Security Committee Andranik Kocharyan, cooperation between the Patriarchate and the Committee will strengthen the spirit of soldiers seriously wounded during the war, revive their faith and restore confidence in the future. This will also pave the way for the realization of the spiritual goals of our people to unite the three pillars of the Armenian Church: the Mother See, the Patriarchate of Jerusalem and the Armenian Patriarchate of Constantinople.
Chair of the NA Standing Committee on Health Care and Social Affairs Narek Zeynalyan, emphasizing the importance of the idea of pilgrimage, the acquisition of spiritual values in Jerusalem, said that the program will be continuous.
