Mission Statement
Torchbearer v Jahagir
The official parish chronicle of Saint John Armenian Church, the Torchbearer/Jahagir, a historical archive of the parish,
shall provide news of events that have occurred in the life of the parish and announcements of forthcoming activities and significant
religious observances and celebrations of the Armenian Church. In addition, this publication will present appropriate articles of interest about Christian Faith, Heritage, Armenian Culture, Social and Outreach ministries, Diocesan and global events in the life of the
Armenian Church, her communicants and other members of the Armenian family. It is through the Torchbearer/Jahagir that the active
involvement of members of Saint John’s parish will be strengthened and perpetuated for future generations.

St. John Armenian Church
From Father
Garabed’s
Desk.........
We, the Pastor and Parish Council, are humbled by the generosity and goodwill offered to the parish of
St. John in loving remembrance of the departed souls who have entered their eternal rests, as well as
the genuine concern and outpouring for the gifts of time, talent and treasure of many who have noted and
acted upon our appeals. Your responses to the needs of our ever-growing parish have helped in keeping
our spiritual home afloat upon the crests of turbulent waves during this past year of economic stress which
has affected virtually every sector of our lives. The personal sacrifices you have made for the ministry and
on-going work of our Armenian Church have certainly demonstrated where your hearts, minds, souls and
strength lie. We are certain that as we step into a new year, the horizon ahead of us will be flooded
with continued light; those rays of hope and promise from Christ our Lord will guide us onward to do His work and
will upon this earth.
We thank you one and all and pray for a prosperous and healthy New Year for your families and for our beloved parish of
St. John the Baptist Armenian Church of Greater Detroit.
~Father Garabed
For all good gifts and all perfect bounties come down from above,
from You, the Father of Light;
and to You is befitting glory dominion and honor,
now and always and forever and ever.
Amen
