Pastor's Message
Morning Prayer
Heavenly Father, for bringing us to a brand new day and week, we Bless Your Holy Name! We thank You for Your Mercy and Grace which woke us to this morning, and kept us safe throughout the night. We remain forever grateful for our families, homes, and jobs, and Pray that You will send Angels to protect us and our loved ones today. May mend every broken heart, touch all who need healing, comfort all who mourn, and bless those with financial needs. Amen
Upcoming St. Garabed Church
Events
Sunday, January 24, 2021: On the occasion of the Feast of the Birth of St. John the Baptist (Sourp Hovanou Garabed), H. G. Bishop Torkom Donoyan, will be celebrating Episcopal Divine Liturgy, delivering sermon and ordaining his first priesthood at St. Garabed Church, starting at 10:00 am.
Dear Parishioners,
We are certain that most of you have heard by now that our Pastor, Archpriest Fr. Vahan Gosdanian will be retiring soon, and we are happy to announce that His Grace Bishop Torkom Donoyan, Prelate of the Western Prelacy, has decided to ordain Deacon Sevag Badoyan as our next parish priest. The ordination ceremony will take place on Sunday, January 24, 2021 at St. Garabed Armenian Apostolic Church of Las Vegas from 10:00 am until 1:00 pm.
Because of the coronavirus pandemic, the ceremony will be held behind closed doors with a limited number of clergy, delegates, dignitaries and out-of-town guests. Due to current restrictions on the number of people we accommodate in the church, we encourage you to watch the ceremony live on the Western Prelacy of the Armenian Church Facebook site or the St. Garabed Church of Las Vegas Facebook site.
We pray and hope that we can all come together soon to wish our newly ordained priest the strength and wisdom to lead our church.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
With faith, strength, and solidarity,
The Board of Trustees
St. Garabed Armenian Apostolic Church of Las Vegas
