On July 10, the Catholicos of All Armenians received at the Mother See the pilgrims of the community of the Holy Savior Church in Ustry, Massachusetts, of the Armenian Eastern Diocese of the USA, led by the spiritual pastor Father Thaddeus Barseghian.
In his blessing speech, the Armenian Patriarch emphasized the importance of the support of Armenians in the Diaspora for their sisters and brothers in their homeland and urged them to keep their families Armenian and strengthen the Mother Church with faith.
The ancestors of the pilgrims are the descendants of Armenians who took refuge there after the Hamidian massacres and the Genocide, mainly from Kharpert and Erzincan, who, having migrated to the USA, founded the first Armenian church in the United States and the entire Western Hemisphere.
