THE HOLY MARRIAGE: THE HOLY GOSPEL BOOK AND CHALICE

by Rev. Arsen Barsamian

All the beauty in and around the Armenian Church are focused around two objects - the Chalice (bride) and the Gospel Book (bridegroom) that are bound together in a Holy Marriage and Sacred Ministry. The Chalice (Holy Communion) and Gospel Book (Word of God) are the the sunlight of the spiritual world by which all other spiritual life can be seen and by which they exist.
