St. Nerses the Great--A Great Man is Chosen Catholicos against His Will
 
When nominated to be Catholicos, Nerses refused, thinking himself unworthy.  The assembled leaders were insistent and continued to press Nerses into service.  After forcibly convincing Nerses to serve as Catholicos, the nobles were leading him into the church for his consecration when a dove came down upon the altar.  When it was time to consecrate Nerses, the dove settled above his head.  The assembled faithful cried out "You are pleasing God! His Spirit rested upon you!"  Learn more about his work.
