The Armenian Apostolic Church celebrated the feast of the St. Gayane Virgins

A procession of clergy led by the Armenian Patriarch moved from the Mother Cathedral to the Saint Gayane Monastery. Every year on the day of the saint's commemoration, the right-shaped relic of Saint Gayane is brought out to distribute blessings to the faithful. During Araratian Week, the relics of Saint John the Baptist and Bishop Atanagin will be taken from the Mother See to the Shoghakat Monastery, and the day of the monastery's consecration will also be celebrated.
