His Eminence Archbishop Hovnan Derderian, Primate of the Western Diocese, and Deacon-in-charge Razmik Sarkissian met with the Santa Barbara Mission Parish Council at the home of Diocesan Council member Dn. Jeff and Karen Hazarian on December 3rd to outline expectations for the mission's future activities and to discuss the pending appointment of a new Pastor for the mission parish. Archbishop Derderian introduced several ideas regarding expansion for consideration by the Council members, while also noting the Council's desire to have the new Pastor focus his attention on reaching out to the large number of Armenian students currently attending the local university.
