From July 16 to 20, 2025 backyard summer camp was organized in five villages of Tskhaltbila community in Javakheti: Tskhaltbila, Julgha, Tsinubani, Khashout and Naokhrebi. 120 children participated in the camp under the guidance of the local parish priests Fr. Sahak Aghekyan and Fr. Poghos Grigoryan, who were kindly supported by Rev. Fr. Anton Grigoryan, a member of Mekhitarist Order, and Rev. Fr. Hovsep Meliksetyan, a member of the Order of Jesus. Issues of the food supply were arranged by Fr. Sahak Aghekyan\u2019s wife \u2013 Mrs. Lusine Serobyan.
\nCampers took part in prayers, daily Holy Masses, classes of religion, singing, dance, in the evening hours \u2013 in sports and fun games together with their spiritual fathers. Children from the neighboring villages also joined the camp with gteat joy, passing on foot rather a long way to the camp.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On the last day of the camp, on Sunday, a pilgrimage was organized to the Stations of the Cross located in the neighborhood, where prayers were made and the open-air Sunday Holy Mass was served.
\nFrom July 22 to 25, 2025 backyard summer camp was organized also in the neighboring Sukhlis again under the guidance of the local parish priest, Fr. Sahak Aghekyan with the kind support of Rev. Fr. Hovsep Meliksetyan. 52 children only from Sukhlis took part in the camp. The schedule was interesting, spiritually rich and full of events, as the previous one. The children were happy to spend their time with the spiritual fathers and the elder friends as leaders.
\nThe backyard summer camps were organized due to the generous donations of the local benefactors and parents of the campers.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

May God bless all our Armenian Catholic benefactors, children and their parents.<\/p>\n
