    Armenian St. Georgy church destroying in Feodosia

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian St. Georgy church of 14th century in
    Feodosiya is destroying and falling down. The church has been long
    under the threat of destruction and unfit for liturgy. Four years ago
    Holy Father Yeremia (reverend of the Surb Khach situated near
    Hovhannes Aivazovsky's grave) attempted to organize the restoration of
    the church. However, the project had to be elaborated and approved,
    which was costly and difficult to achieve due to bureaucratic hurdles,
    kafa-info.com.ua reported.

    `Armenian community representatives simply cleaned up the area near
    the church and left it closed. Recently the door has disappeared and
    the church is open now. Its interior is in state of decay, though the
    location and the church are really spectacular. If restored and
    cleaned, the place can become one of the most popular sights of
    Feodosiya,' kafa-info.com.ua reads.
