THE ARMENIAN APOSTOLIC CHURCH

The Armenian Apostolic Church is the living body of our Lord Jesus Christ.Founded in the first century by two of the Apostles of Jesus Christ, Saints Thaddeus and Bartholomew, we are one of the five ancient Eastern Oriental Orthodox churches. On 301 CE, Armenia became the first nation in the world to declare Christianity as state religion through the enlighting work of our patron saint, St. Gregory the Illuminator, and the decree of King Trdat III.

 For 1,700 years the Armenian Apostolic Church followed Our Lord Jesus Christ, His teachings, the teachings of His Holy Apostles, Our sacred Church traditions, and the teachings of our graceful Saints and Church fathers.
