With a sense of warmest fatherly love we greet the Spiritual Brotherhood of the Armenian Church on the land of Armenia. We are well informed of the reality that:
- They are carrying out the spiritual ministry in the healthy doctrinal sphere of the Armenian Church.
- They apply the truths of the Gospel in their daily lives and preach them.
- They spread the evangelical spirit of the Armenian Church to the ordinary classes of people.
- They support and protect the Armenian Church from those who try to stain our saint Illuminator's faith with their false preaching.
We pray to the gracious God, that He will strengthen all the members in Armenia, Kharabach and in Diaspora with His heavenly wisdom and the virtue of spiritual firmness.
Jesus said to His disciples. "Be my witnesses". The same words are addressed to you, our dear brothers and sisters, precious children of the Armenian Apostolic Church.
As a newly elected all Armenians' Catholicos we bless you and your Christ-centered work from the holy place of pilgrimage, the Saint Edgmiadzin.
Be sound in the Lord, be strengthened in the grace of the Holy Spirit and be blessed in Him forever.
Praying for You 29 of April, 1995 S. Echmiadzin
