St James Armenian Church Choir Our church choir has been in transition for over a year now. We have made wonderful improvements in singing and in learning new hymns by way of choir rehearsals twice a month. Our choir is a vital part of the church service. We, as a choir, are the leaders in singing of our hymns and encouraging the congregation to join in as well, which spiritually uplifts our hearts and souls. It has been said that the hymns of our Armenian Church have been the most beautiful in the entire Christendom. The beauty of our hymns is expressed through our singing and worship. We are encouraging everyone in our community, who is interested in joining the choir, to contact Ms. Peruz Manoukian, Choir Director at 437-0417, or Der Mesrob Hovsepyan at the church office. Since the November 2004, some members of the St. James Church Choir have been going to Newport News, Virginia to sing during Badarak for the Armenian community of the Tidewater area. Services are being conducted at the chapel of the Greek Church in Newport News. It is our hope and prayer that with the help of our choir that the Tidewater area Armenian community will become a mission parish of the Eastern Diocease in the near future. Badarak is held on a Saturday, once a month. You can call our church office, 282-3818, to find out the exact dates. |
