Pope Francis has urged to accompany him with prayers during his visit to Armenia.

“Please accompany me with your prayers during my apostolic journey to Armenia,” Pope tweeted.

Pope will travel to Armenia from June 24 to 26. The pontiff is expected to meet with President Sargsyan and Catholicos Karekin II. Pope will also visit Memorial to the Armenian Genocide victims, and will hold pray for peace in Yerevan’s Republic Square. On his final day, the Bishop of Rome will visit the Khor Virap monastery near the Turkish border where he will release doves in the direction of Mount Ararat.
