The Divine Liturgy of the Armenian Apostolic Church (Part 1/5)

Beautiful!

Can anyone tell me in english what the choir is singing at 13:50? While the bishop is blessing the people. Thank you very much. Peace and blessings from Holland.

I am a Latin Right Catholic, however, I love the unchanging nature of the Armenian Church and the beauty of it's Divine Liturgy which I find deeply moving. I watch this regularly as it makes me feel nearer to Our Almighty Father in Heaven. May God Bless all the peoples of the world and bring them to the light and truth of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour.

It is as if we see the heavens open and angels going up and down before us.

To all of our Eastern Orthodox Brothers in Christ
Our Armenian Church since its inception and acceptance of Christ as a nation in 301AD, we have never ever changed our original Orthodox ways,
politics played a major role, and during the Council of Chaledon in 451AD Armenia could not attend becasue Armenia was fighting for Christianity in Battle of Avarayr in 451, while the Council was arguing petty politics and defenitions of Christs nature. We have nevr EVER accepted the Monophosyite accusation, we consider Monophysitism, as taught by Eutyches and condemned at Chalcedon, a heresy and only disagree with the formula defined by the Council of Chalcedon.
Hence our Church has never strayed from original Orthodoxy, EVER
I attend both Churches because my wife is Greek & my Mother is Georgian, and in unity and understanding we will serve our Lord Christ better

I'm Roman Catholic and after watching this video, I think that the Divine Liturgy of the Armenian Apostolic Church is absolutely beautiful. I attend the Traditional Latin Tridentine Mass at my Roman Catholic church every Sunday because I don't like the modern liturgy introduced in the 1960's by Pope Paul VI. I noticed that the Armenian bishop in the video wears a mitre similar to the mitres Roman Catholic bishops wear.

Beautiful liturgy indeed!.....and yes, your people have been Christian since ancient times......but as you can see with the video, sadly, it is only meant for the Armenian people, and not for any other nation/ people and in that sense has lost the original mission of Christ to make the Church truly 'Catholic' by preaching and reaching out to all people.....it's not meant as a criticism, simply an observation that while your Orthodox and Catholic brothers and sisters have brought the faith to other peoples and accepted them into the Church, yours has stayed only within your own people.....God bless our Armenian sisters and brothers, despite our differences and separation. Kyrie eleison.

Thank you for the creation of these songs.....I love and know them all....

Nicely done video series. However it should be noted that some of the sharagans were in the Gomidas setting.

The comment that people should stop "preaching" to us Christianity was probably the best comment in regards to accusing the First Church of being heretic. 

Beautiful! God save our church and faith! Amen

I honestly loved your comment, they are going to tell the oldest Christian nation that our form of Christianity is "wrong". We are all Christians at the end of the day, so people really need to take it easy and work for reunification of our churches not segregation and hatred of one another. Thank you for the video :)

Thank you for your valuable information. From the offset, it is obvious that this is done very professionally , highlighting the glory of this sacred place. I congratulate those who made this beautiful film.

Dear Gregory, thank you for nice comments... this remarkable and impressive work was done by the ''Luys Film Company'', I just had a chance to upload it...

Every face in this video tells a story. There is so much character and history in each and every face that makes it doubly interesting to watch this enchanting film. Thank you.

I can not thank you enough for these beautiful films ( videos).Thank you also for the brief explanation on the video clip.

Dear Orthodox brothers all the comments accusing our church in monophysitism or miaphysitism will be deleted... Stop ''preaching'' to us christianity, we are (nationwide) christians since 301 AD !!!
