One Bish’, Two Bish’, Old Bish’, New Bish’

The Armenian Apostolic Church held a prayer service on Wednesday celebrating the diversity of Christian denominations in Georgia and expressing reconciliatory fervor among these different groups.

Baptist Bishop Malkhaz Songulashvili began the service with a welcome and a prayer. Next to him stood two Armenian Apostolic Bishops, which makes three Bishops. However, also present was a Catholic Bishop. Other included several clergy of different denominations, several singing groups, and a few diplomats including Georgia’s Public Defender, a South Ossetian woman dignitary, and the Dutch Ambassador.

Many people dedicated to the work of reconciliation and peace in Georgia were also in attendance, including ICCN’s very own Georgia Khutsishvili, Lela, Irina, and more, and members of different churches.


And of course, George Clooney was present as well.
