"DNORHNEK"
Home Blessing for Every Armenian Family

It is customary to have our homes blessed by a priest, especially during the first 40 days after Sourp Dzenount. It is a beautiful ceremony through which we bring the presence of our Lord into the heart of our own home for protection, happiness and prosperity.

To request a 'Dnorhnek' please contact the ACCC's Church Wardens at St Yeghiche Church or the ACCC's  Community Parish Priest, Fr. Shnork Baghdassarian :
Telephone Vicarage: 020 7937 0152 or Mobile 07703 008 499 or E-mail:
