Registration Live For 2023 ACYOA Armenia Service Program
The Armenia Service Program (ASP) has a long history of providing young adults with a unique opportunity to affirm their faith, discover and connect with their homeland, and serve its people in a meaningful way. Participants return home enriched and inspired by their experience and eager to strengthen their bond with the homeland and their Church.
We are pleased to announce that registration is live for the 2023 ACYOA Armenia Service Program, taking place July 1 - July 21, 2023.
Our Primate has appointed Fr. Hratch Sargsyan of St. Gregory of Narek Church in Richmond Heights, OH to lead the group through our homeland for an amazing opportunity to explore and serve. Participants will visit historical and cultural sites, reflect and pray in ancient monasteries, work on a Fuller Center house build, spend time volunteering at a children’s summer camp, and support FAR and Ayo! projects.
The full rate of the program is $2,775.00, but thanks to the generosity of the Dadourian Foundation, ACYOA subsidies and grassroots fundraising efforts, we are pleased to offer this wonderful experience at the reduced rate of $2,000.00 for the first 25 participants to register.
The program rate includes all ground transportation and transfers in Armenia, lodging, all sightseeing tours with a bilingual (Armenian and English) tour guide, most meals over the twenty day itinerary, and more.
The program rate does not include roundtrip airfare. Participants will purchase their own flights separately and work with Diocesan staff to
coordinate their arrival and departure times with other participants.
Participants are encouraged to register below by April 25. Additional information and a full itinerary of the 2023 Armenia Service Program can be found below as well.
We ask that you support ASP by:
-
Promoting the program with your local youth by posting information on your parish website, e-newsletters, social media channels and church bulletins.
-
Identify one or more young adult in your parish community to recruit and encourage to attend.
-
Provide financial assistance as a parish community, when possible.
