Yet in 2015, according to the Pontifical Encyclical of His Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians; the feast was proclaimed as Pilgrimage Day of Holy Lance (Geghard).

On the Feast, a Divine Liturgy will be offered in St. John the Baptist and St. Vardan Chapel-baptistry of the Mother See.

The Divine Liturgy will start at 10:30 a.m.

On this solemn occasion, the Holy Lance (Geghard) will be taken to the Cathedral, and during the celebration of Divine Liturgy will remain there.

At the conclusion, the Pontiff of All Armenians will convey His Blessings to the attended pious people and our Fatherland, with the miraculous Holy Lance.
