Home or Hospital Bound
As an extended family of St. Gregory, many of our sick, elderly and home bound faithful are unable to attend Church. They may be at home or in the hospital but most importantly: They are not forgotten and we would like to make sure to visit them. If you know of someone who is unable to attend Church or is in need of a pastoral visitation, please inform Fr. Paren directly Email: armenianchurchorlando@gmail.com  or call the church office at 407-876-7732.
The Parish Council of Soorb Haroutiun Armenian Church of Orlando is looking forward to restart the Women's Guild in our church. We are asking those who are ready to help and interested on this to contact our Chairman Mr. John Shahinian or call to church office.

ACYOA Summertime Service

For the third summer in a row, the ACYOA Central Council is encouraging its chapters and membership to participate in Summertime Service, but with a little twist during these socially-distant times! These last couple months have been nothing short of unexpected, but the world has shown their love and support for one another and many have been working together for our communities through service. Now that summer is upon us, we wanted to share some ideas with our ACYOA chapters and membership to take part in Summertime Service in these special times. Attached please find a Summertime Service Infographic to see some creative ways to offer service to your community. Follow ACYOA on Facebook and Instagram to see videos of service ideas in action, and be sure to use the hashtag #acyoaservice to promote your service on social media!
Click to see the new diocesan educational initiative called Vemkar. The goal is for Vemkar to transform the way all our people grow in their Christian faith and commitment to the Armenian Church.

Click the following links for resources that will enrich your appreciation of the connection between Communion and healing:
  • LISTEN: A new “Taste and See” podcast on the badarak and healing.
  • PRAY: A liturgical service (in classical Armenian) for healing, “Communion for the Sick.”
  • LEARN: A lesson plan on how to be “In Communion with Ourselves.”

Mission of the Armenian Apostolic Orthodox Church

The Mission of the Armenian Apostolic Orthodox Church is to preach the Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ and to proclaim its message of Salvation. This mission is realized through worship, education, witness, service, and a common life in Jesus Christ as expressed in the distinctive faith – experience of the Armenian people. All members of the Armenian Church (both clergy and lay) are called to participate fully in its mission.
