Join Us June 9 for the Enthronement of Our Primate

With a spirit of joy and hope, the public is cordially invited to a special “Service of Enthronement,” during which Fr. Mesrop Parsamyan will take his place as the 13th Primate of the Eastern Diocese.

The service will go forward on Thursday, June 9, at 6:30 p.m., at St. Vartan Armenian Cathedral (630 Second Ave., at 34th St.) in New York City. Plans call for the service to also be broadcast live over the Eastern Diocese’s YouTube and Facebook platforms.

A public reception will follow in Haik and Alice Kavookjian Auditorium. All are welcome to attend. (Please note that with New York experiencing rising rates of infection, all attendees will be asked to show proof of vaccination at the reception.)

For this joyous occasion, we welcome gifts to the “Primate’s Ministry Fund” to support Hayr Mesrop as he begins his leadership of our Diocese. Click here to make a donation.

Above all, please join us on June 9—in person and online—to welcome our new Primate Hayr Mesrop, express our gratitude to outgoing Primate Bishop Daniel, and join together in prayerful goodwill for the future of our Diocese.
