Primate of Damascus visited Armenian Church Diocese of Canada

By the invitation of His Eminence Bishop Bagrat Galstanian, Primate Bishop Armash Nalbandian paid an official visit to our Diocese in the parishes of Toronto and Montreal.

The Primate of the Armenian Diocese in Damascus celebrated Holy Divine Liturgy in Holy Trinity Armenian Church of Toronto (November 18, 2012) and St. Gregory the Illuminator Cathedral of Montreal (November 25, 2012). Primate Nalbandian met our faithful in Toronto and Montreal and discussed challenges facing the Armenian Community in Syria. During his stay in Toronto, he met Canadian ecumenical leaders. In Montreal, Bishop Armash visited AGBU Alex Manoogian School accompanied by His Eminence Bagrat Galstanian, Primate.

The Armenian Church Canadian Diocese’s fundraising campaign for Syrian-Armenian relief is still underway. Individuals and parishes can make checks out to the Armenian Holy Apostolic Church Canadian Diocese (please write “Syrian Relief” in the memo).

All the proceeds collected will go to the relief effort, to be distributed through the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin.
