On July 15, students and teachers of Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin's Armenian College and Philanthropic Academy (ACPA) and the Armenian Community of Kolkata, India celebrated the Feast of Holy Transfiguration of Our Lord Jesus Christ (Vartavar).
The Holy Transfiguration is one of the five major Feasts in the Armenian Church Calendar. The Divine Liturgy was held at Holy Nazareth Mother Church. The Church Service and subsequent baptism were conducted by Very Rev. Father Khoren Hovhannisyan, Pastor of Armenians in India and Manager of Armenian College and Philanthropic Academy.
The Celebration was doubly blessed – on one hand there was the great joy of Celebration of Holy Transfiguration of our Lord Jesus Christ and on the other, was the memorable occasion for seven young students of Armenian College as it was the day of their baptism.
