Armenian Church needs funds to restore Holy Land sites

(Armenian WD) - The magnificent St. James Cathedral in the Armenian Quarter of the Holy City of Jerusalem as well as the Armenian section of the Church of Nativity in Bethlehem need urgent renovations and structural improvements. These priceless icons of Christianity are under care of the Brotherhood of St. James of the Patriarchate of Jerusalem.

So far, thanks to the efforts of Ms. Anoush Berberian, $8,040.00 have been raised in the greater Los Angeles area for the renovation projects of the Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem.

It is extremely important to all of us to realize the magnitude and monumental importance of these amazing Christian Churches which by the Grace of God have remained under the custody of the Armenian Church for the last several centuries.

The Office of the Western Diocese has setup a fund to receive and transfer donations immediately to the Patriarchate of Jerusalem from our faithful community throughout the Diocese. Please make your checks payable to "Western Diocese - Armenian Church" and write "Jerusalem or Bethlehem" in the memo section of the check. Please send your Checks to:
