The St. Vardanants Day- celebrated in memory of Armenian Commander
Vardan Mamikonyan and his 1036 martyrs
The Armenian Church was involved in the defense of the Motherland since
the adoption of Christianity in Armenia. The Battle of Avarayr is a
striking example of it. On May 26, 451 the Armenian Church, headed by
the Catholicos Joseph, with Armenian warriors took part in the Battle
of Avarayr. In order to preserve the country, the Armenian Church and
Christianity, Vardan Mamikonian (Father of Saint Shushanik) and his
1036 martyrs - the great saints of the Armenian Apostolic Church -
died the death of heroes. The clergy not only inspired the soldiers
before the battle, but also baptized them and strengthened their faith
and spirit. According to Yeghishe a prominent Armenian historian on
the eve of the battle the clergy had built an altar and commited the
Holy Mystery, and if some of the soldiers were not baptized, baptized
them all night, and the next morning they received Holy Communion. The
Battle of Avarayr was the evidence that truly nothing will turn away
the Armenians from the idea of Christian Motherland.
The St. Vardanants Day will be solemnly celebrated at the Mother See
of Holy Etchmiadzin and at all Armenian churches a Divine Liturgy
will be served on 7 February..
