Armenian Church Primate Barsamian to Visit Orlando
Florida Armenians is pleased to report that Archbishop Khajag Barsamian, Primate of the Eastern Diocese of the Armenian Church of America, will visit Soorp Haroutiun Armenian Church in Orlando, Florida this Sunday, January 17, 2016. Service will begin promptly at 10:00 AM.
2015 was a sad year for the Armenians across the globe-we commemorated the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide while our spiritual leader, Catholicos Karekin II, consecrated 1.5 million of our martyrs as new saints.
2016 will be a happy and proud year for the Orlando Armenian American community. Soorp Haroutiun will celebrate their 30th anniversary of their establishment and the 5th anniversary of the consecration of the sanctuary. We ask you to join us and come together to welcome His Eminence and celebrate the monumental accomplishments of our small but growing parish.
A special luncheon and program with His Eminence will follow the Service.
Soorp Haroutiun Armenian Church of Orlando is located at 9274 Winter Garden Vineland Road, Orlando, FL 32836.
Luncheon seating is limited. Suggested luncheon donations are $15 for adults and $5 for children under 12. Please call 407-876-2616 or 407-679-7231 to reserve your seat today.
