Western Diocese

The wonderful Thanksgiving Day tradition of the Armenia Fund Telethon, once again, on Wednesday, November 22, 2007, united all Armenians around the world to help Armenia and Artsakh. More than fifteen million dollars was pledged during the live televised telethon.

 His Eminence Archbishop Hovnan Derderian, Primate of the Western Diocese, in his televised message, encouraged the faithful to bring their share to this God-pleasing work. The Primate made the announcement for a $50,000 donation from the Western Diocese of the Armenian Church to the Armenia Fund 2007 telethon, towards restoration of a specific border village in Artsakh.
