Matyan Voxbergutyan Narekatsi

We are a group of followers of the Armenian Apostolic Church and our goal is to make this spiritual treasure more accessible, hoping to contribute to the strengthening of our faith. We do not seek profit with this app and other projects; our only goal is serving God. The app contains the work "Book of Lamentations" in English, Russian, Classical Armenian(Grabar) and the translations by Vazgen Gevorgyan and Mkrtich Kheranyan. The app is actively under development, so issues may arise during use, and there might be some spelling errors in the prayers. We kindly ask for your understanding as we fix these issues gradually. We also plan to include foreign language translations and other Armenian translations in the future. We are open to collaboration and would love to hear your suggestions and recommendations regarding the development of the app and the dissemination of our Armenian spiritual treasures.
