    Going to Armenia will change your life. There are two great pilgrimages
    this year:

    * Women's Guild Pilgrimage to Armenia -- September 16 to 27 / $2,400.
    See Holy Etchmiadzin, Yerevan, ancient holy sites, and current cultural
    activities. For more information call Ann Devejian (203) 838-5758.

    Remember: even if you can't go, you can help pay to send a young person
    from your parish. It will connect them with their heritage, and make
    them assets to your parish community.
