Renewing our 

human resources

Since its inception, the Eastern Prelacy has carried out its mission, from the United States to the Middle East and Armenia, aiming at the spiritual, national, cultural, educational and social welfare of Armenians, as well as the development and flourishing of our new generation. 

In close cooperation with all its parishes, the Prelacy strives to renew its programs, tending to the various needs of our people.

Over the last year, our Prelacy was given a new breath of life thanks to the pontifical visit of His Holiness Catholicos Aram I in November 2023 and the blessings he brought to our communities as he toured our parishes in the mid-Atlantic region, from Washington to New York and Connecticut. His Holiness will complete his schedule with the second part of the pontifical visit in October 2024, for which we are already preparing enthusiastically.

We have continued our current programs, attaining new achievements. This year, we completed the four-year teacher-training course. The Siamanto Academy wrapped up a new academic year in its more than forty years of life. The St. Gregory of Datev summer academy enriched the life of its participants with an extensive program. Salt and Light continues to bring young people together. The internship program for college students at the Prelacy offices completed its second year. The sum of this work will further strengthen the Armenian and religious education of our young generation.

In May 2024, the National Representative Assembly focused its attention on a number of key issues, following the recommendations of His Holiness about reorganizing the Diaspora as well as renewing and enlarging our human resources.  

The mission of the Prelacy remains unchanged, the implementation of which requires us more than ever to unite our forces and join in a common front to empower our communities for a bright future, which is built by the practical contribution of each individual.

Prayerfully, 

Archbishop Anoushavan
Prelate
