In May, Pope Francis welcomed a gathering of sisters to the Vatican and exclaimed, “What would the church miss if there were no more religious?” In Armenia, the religious sisters not only help uplift broken families and impoverished communities, but they inspire men and women to live lives of service to the poorest of poor — especially its abandoned women and children.
CNEWA encourages the works of the Armenian Sisters of the Immaculate Conception and the charity of the local Catholic community, Caritas Armenia, funding social service activities around the country to give solace and support to both young and old as they endure social and economic hardships.
