A reception in support of the Guardians of the Cathedral Initiative was held at the Diocesan Headquarters on Thursday, November 17, 2016. Held under the auspices of His Eminence Archbishop Hovnan, the fellowship was organized by Miss Silvana Vartanian.
The Guardian Program presents a unique opportunity for the youth to uphold and safeguard the sacred legacy inherited from our forefathers, thus becoming rightful heirs of the priceless treasure – the Armenian Apostolic Holy Church.
The Guardian Program is intended to engage the young generation of faithful in the life of the iconic Cathedral, fostering a sense of ownership and cultivating spiritual attachment.
The Program is designed to allow donors to pledge $10,000 over a period of 10 years (less than $84 per month) to St. Leon Armenian Cathedral, giving them ample time and opportunity to fulfill their commitment without feeling overburdened as they tend to their families and pursue their career objectives.

"Protecting and safeguarding the Armenian Apostolic Church is the sacred responsibility of every Armenian. We are obliged to protect the Armenian Church spiritually and financially in order to ensure the continuity of her mission."
