With the blessing of Archbishop Mikayel Ajapahyan, Primate of the Shirak Diocese, November 21 was also designated as the feast day of the Holy Mother of God Church in Maralik. The relic-bearing right of John the Baptist was transferred from the Seven Wounds Church in Gyumri and a festive liturgy of the feast was served. The holiday got its name from an episode in the childhood of the Virgin Mary, when her parents, Hovakim and Anna, presented the three-year-old Mary to the Temple in Jerusalem.
