    LIVENING UP THE SPIRITUAL AND SECULAR LIFE

    The Artsakh Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church intends opening
    chair of theology at Artsakh State University. This was announced by
    the head of the Diocese of Artsakh, Parghev archbishop Martirossian.
    Yerevan State University has a faculty of theology already, and it is
    time to think for this in Artsakh. The Diocese also intends founding
    the Student's Union of Churchgoers headed by ArSU. Similar
    organizations already operate in Armenia and the Armenian Diaspora,
    greatly contributing to both spiritual and secular life. Archbishop
    Martirossian added that his cherished dream is introduce at schools
    the subject old Armenian language, at least starting with the 3rd or
    4th grades. "Every Armenian teenager should be aware of his original
    language, the Armenian language that was the language of Noah, which
    also has a theological origin. If we fulfill this, it will be a great
    achievement, said the archbishop of Artsakh."
