Sunday School 9th and 10th Graders

This trip was made possible through the efforts of our Sunday School staff.

Thanks to Sunday School superintendants, Mrs. Pottle and Mrs Sarkisian.

Our group of 15 students, comprising most of the 9th and 10th grades, departed from Worcester to

meet and attend Badarak at St. James in Watertown with students from their 9th & 10th grade Sunday School classes.

The St. James Sunday School graciously hosted a light lunch for us. Then, we all departed for the Museum.

Our thanks to Gary and Susan Lind-Sinanian for personally taking us through the whole museum,

explaining its origin and growth, as well as providing us with facinating descriptions of many of the items on display.

They are currently featuring:

"Undercover: Armenian Textiles of Bed and Bath"

We even noticed an authentic bathrobe donated by our own Berjouhie Zakarian!

Some of the permanent items on display include a collection of pictures and items from the Armenian Genocide,

Armenian musical instruments, artworks created by young students, as well as paintings and poems by Dr. Jack Kevorkian.

Mrs. Pottle addresses the students on proper museum behavior.

Our 10th Graders

Special thanks to Mrs. Alabashian, Sunday School superintendant of St. James.

I look forward to Toddlers Class each week, the bewildered faces looking at me when I’m telling a Bible story, the little hands trying to make the sign of the cross, the way they say their “Anoon Hor”, the smiles and laughter at song time, hearing their stories, and of course, the hugs and kisses, all make me very happy and I’m so happy that it has brought joy to others as well. I thank God for the opportunity to serve Him, through this Holy Church, by helping in some small way to bring His Children closer to Him.

I am grateful to Der Aved, members of the Parish Council and the parents of the Toddlers Class

who show their appreciation for our little program each week. Thank you all for showing support of our Program.

May this program continue to flourish, for its benefits are numerous.

Special thanks to Yeretzgin Vivian
