Nshanakir/Նշանագիր – Rev. Nishan Bakalian’s Reports & Thoughts From Lebanon
- Like an Old-Timer17.Like an Old-Timer (29 August 2018)Togetherness (mostly) over kebab at the Bakalians! This time with Sevag and a bunch of friends (20 July 2018 – Geitawi, Beirut) When taking some visitors around Beirut recently, I realized that I was talking like an old-timer. Remember, you don’t have to be old to talk like a […]
- Something Familiar16.Something Familiar (10 June 2018) What? Hoagies? This isn’t Philadelphia. But not to worry. It went out of business. (9 May 2018 – Beirut) I was as surprised as anyone. And all I can conclude is that people are overly polite, or they have no answers for ant infestations, or they no longer read […]
It is with deep sorrow that we share the sad news of the passing of Samuel Hekemian, Jr., AMAA Former President (1978-1980) of Oradell, NJ.
The AMAA Headquarters in Paramus, NJ and the Global AMAA Mission in general testify to the legacy of a man who has left an imprint on the Association. The AMAA has truly lost a friend.

Rev. Masis Agopian (Moscow) in his morning message challenged the youth to consider the level of thirst they have for the living God (Ps. 42.1), and to deepen that thirst through having a living relationship with God. The worship band again ably led the assembly in song and prayer, as they have been doing throughout the retreat time in Hankavan, joining the youth in yet deeper bonds.
It was reunion time at Hankavan! The mission teams showed up at the camp one by one, each bringing a van-load of energy with them. The youth hugged and kissed each other, they jumped up and down, they even were dancing a shourch-bar (circle dance).
It was also story time at Hankavan. Stories about their experiences in their mission service projects. Animatedly, around the lunch and dinner tables, they shared what they did, both their work as well as their interactions with the local communities. Pastor Datev Basmajian (Lebanon) relates how the teams in Nor Ayntab drew so close that they shared not only their common ministry, but also their colds! And all of the other groups said the same.
