At all times we bless thee, O Lord, and we praise thy name forever. Make us worthy, O Lord, and keep us this day in peace and without sin.— Park I Partzoons (a Matins hymn of Armenian Church)
The goal of the Oratsouyts Project is to create tool that will allow the faithful of the Armenian Church to follow the Lectionary (Oratsouyts in Armenian). That is the calendar of feasts days and their corresponding bible readings.
In the Armenian Church each day of the year represents an opportunity to grow closer to God, and the Church Calendar represents a an annual journey that reveals the story of salvation to us.
