SUMMARY:BLESSING OF POMEGRANATES
DESCRIPTION:BLESSING OF POMEGRANATES \n\n\n\nSunday\, December 28\, 10:00 AM \n\n\n\nYou are welcome to bring pomegranates with you to be blessed. \n\n\n\nAs a national symbol\, the pomegranate has been widely used in Armenian architecture\, arts and manuscripts. In Christianity\, the pomegranate symbolizes the diversity of God’s grace\, the Church. Just as the seeds of the pomegranate are separated by thin membranes yet held tightly together\, in the same way\, the Christian Church holds all Christians around the world together in Christ’s love; though they are separate\, they are not divided.
