Iranian-Armenians Observed Christmas Mass Prayer Ceremony
Iranian-Armenian worshippers are standing in line to receive holy bread at the St. Vartan Armenian Church in central Tehran during a Christmas mass prayer ceremony on January 6, 2024. The Armenian Church celebrates January 6th as Christmas because Armenia was the first country to adopt Christianity as its official religion in 301 AD. They commemorate the birth of Christ and his baptism, which is believed to have occurred 33 years after his birth and on the same day, on January 6th. (Photo by Morteza Nikoubazl/NurPhoto)
