Monks from the monastery of the Holy Archangels and seminarians of the Armenian Jerusalem Patriarchate organized a general cleaning in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, in Kuvuklia - on the site of the Resurrection of the Savior - and around it. Sputnik-Armenia news agency reports.
A video about this action appeared on YouTube, on the channel of the abbot of the monastery - candidate of theological sciences, Archimandrite Ghevond Oganisyan: he himself filmed what was happening in the temple and commented on what was happening in the frame in Armenian and Russian. A 20-minute video demonstrates how monks and seminarians fence off part of the temple space next to the Kuvuklia and then begin cleaning, carefully removing carbon and wax from the walls and floor. Due to the fact that the video cameras are fixed on the heads of the participants of the cleaning action, the one who watches the video has the opportunity to see the details of the interior of the greatest Christian shrine, as it were, from a narrow window through which the Holy Fire is given to believers on Holy Saturday, and ending with the dome of the Kuvuklia, inside which the miracle of its convergence takes place. You can see in the video and pilgrims, which are traditionally a lot in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. They watch with interest what is happening because of the metal fences installed by the cleaning participants. The off-screen commentary tells that the Armenians, Greeks from the Jerusalem Patriarchate and Franciscan Catholics take turns removing Kuvukliya. This happens weekly on Fridays, but this is the first time the cleaning process is captured on video. Archimandrite Ghevond also reminds viewers of the video that a public has been created on the facebook social network through which live broadcasts from the greatest shrine of the Christian world will be conducted.
