On Wednesday, May 25, 2016, H.E. Archbishop Moushegh Mardirossian, Prelate, met with H.E. Archbishop Sebouh Sarkissian, Prelate of Tehran, who had arrived earlier in the week for a 10-day visit to the Western Prelacy. H.E. Archbishop Yeprem Tabakian participated in the meeting.
The two guest clergy first congratulated the Prelate on his re-elected to a sixth term by the Western Prelacy 44th Representatives Assembly and wished him continued successes in his tenure. The meeting afforded the opportunity for an exchange of information on the endeavors of the two Prelacies and a discussion on the current situation in the Middle East and its implications on the Armenian communities in the region.
Archbishop Sarkissian will celebrate Divine Liturgy at St. Mary’s Church in Glendale on Sunday, May 29. On Friday, May 27, at 7:00 p.m., a community gathering with Archbishop Sarkissian will be held at the Mardirossian Youth Center in Burbank.
