Vatican City, Apr 4, 2018 / 01:49 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- At the end of Pope Francis’ visit to Armenia in June 2016, the pope was given a small statue of St. Gregory of Narek, a gift from Armenia’s President Serzh Sargsyan.
 
“This is a present from the Armenian people, and we hope that one day a statue of St. Gregory of Narek will be installed in the Vatican,” he said.
 
Pope Francis responded: “I do like both the statue and the idea.”
