Today, Armenians around the world celebrate the Birth of Christ, along with His manifestation and baptism.
It’s a lot to squeeze into one holiday but we’re up to the task.
Not to stray too far from recipes and holiday leftovers, but the tradition of Jan. 6 is an important part of the Armenian identity.
Yes, we know there are many Armenian Protestants and Catholics who celebrate Christmas on Dec. 25 — and, as Americans, so do we. But Armenian Christmas remains special not only as a distinction but as a reminder of how the Armenian faith has endured along with the Armenian people.
So Merry Christmas to all!
