On Wednesday, March 6, the Eastern Prelacy held its fourth Lenten Program, cosponsored by St. Illuminator’s Cathedral. The program featured an abridged Husgoom service, followed by a lecture, and concluded with table fellowship.

She highlighted six leadership domains where women (as well as men) serve in the church, citing examples from the New Testament and contemporary life in the Armenian Church.
