Artsakh Family Number Five
Receives a New Home!
While the Paros Team was in the Syunik village of Babikavan, they were able to give Tigran Petrosyan, his wife and six children the excellent news that they were now owners of a newly renovated three bedroom apartment and would be moving in within the next week. In addition, the family’s new apartment will be fully furnished thanks to the generosity of the St. Sahak & Mesrob parish in Wynnewood, PA.
Help contribute towards supporting permanent housing for other Artsakh refugees here.
