The Diocese
Posted: 10/10/2025
With hearts full of gratitude and joy, we are thrilled to announce that our church in Glendale, California has officially received all necessary permits and has begun construction in full force. This long-awaited milestone marks the beginning of a sacred journey — one built on faith, unity, and purpose.
Inspired by the words of Scripture, we are reminded of Ephesians 2:20: “Built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.” And so, together as a community, we rise — not just to build walls and a roof, but to create a spiritual home where generations will gather to worship, learn, and grow in Christ.
This mission is not merely about construction; it is a God-pleasing endeavor rooted in fellowship and love. As 1 Corinthians 3:9 reminds us, “For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.” Each prayer, each contribution, and each act of support is a brick laid in faith.
We invite our faithful community to continue walking with us on this journey. Updates will be shared regularly as construction progresses, and we look forward to celebrating each step with you.
“As you pass by and witness the construction of our church - know that every glance, every passing moment, is a silent prayer and a powerful witness to our deep-rooted faith in Christ.” — Archbishop Hovnan Derderian, Primate of the Western Diocese of the Armenian Church.
Let us build together — for today, for tomorrow, and for the glory of God.
