    CANADIAN ARMENIANS ARRIVE WITH CHARITY MISSION


    ARTIMET, JULY 26, ARMENPRESS: Twenty-four young people (16-20
    years old) from the Canadian Armenian Youth Mission headed by the
    leader of the Canadian Diocese of the Armenian Church Archbishop
    Bagrat Galstian arrived in Armenia with a charity mission and
    launched the reconstruction of St Astvatsatsin (Virgin) church built
    in 1876 in Artimet village, Armavir province. The volunteers of the
    program organized a camp for 60 children from socially unsecured
    families of the village Aratashen and after their work they join the
    kids.
    Archbishop said the funds spent on the implementation of the
    charity program are provided by the Canadian Armenian community. The
    volunteers arrived in Armenia for a month and are hosted by the local
    farmers.
