What Is Vem and Why Vem?

In Armenian, the word “vem” means “rock, big stone,” also “basis, foundation.” In spiritual terminology, “vem” symbolizes Jesus Christ. At the same time, “vem” denotes credo, dogma, and a unity of the main principles of faith. In general, “vem” stands for a “base of existence” or “fundamental values of human life.”

Our name reveals our mission. Our activity is dedicated to the coverage of:

  • fundamental concepts and values of human life
  • to strengthening of spiritual awareness
  • to protection of Armenian identity and culture
