ENDOWMENT FUND

An important message from your
Endowment Committee

Dear Parishioners and Friends,

We hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. As the year comes to a close, we reflect on the many blessings we’ve experienced—both personally and as a Church community—throughout 2024. Together, we’ve shared in the joy of several memorable events: a wonderful Poon Paregentan party; beautiful picnic; an amazing community trip to Armenia; very successful Worcester Armenian Festival, where we celebrated our Armenian heritage with both our community and guests from beyond; college students gathering; family fun events; great golf tournament; and a new outreach program for Veterans and our homeland in Armenia. Additionally, we’ve made significant upgrades to our kitchen and Cultural Center, enriching the spaces that bring us together.

These achievements are a direct result of the generosity and dedication of our parishioners—both past and present—who have shared their time, talents, and resources. Our continued growth and success are the fulfillment of the vision our ancestors had when they established the Endowment Fund.

To help carry this legacy forward, we are excited to invite you to join our annual “National Day of Giving” Campaign. This day is a special reminder of the joy and fulfillment that comes from helping others and contributing to charitable causes that reflect our shared values. The 2024 Endowment Campaign kicks off today and runs through December 3, 2024, which is “National Giving Tuesday.”

This year, we’ve set a goal to raise $50,000. We are incredibly grateful to announce that the “Asbed and Margaret Zakarian Charitable Foundation” will generously MATCH $2 for every $1 donated—whether to an existing fund or a newly established one. This means that a contribution of $500 for example, will be matched by $1,000, resulting in a total donation of $1,500. This is a remarkable opportunity for our Church to continue its legacy of giving.

We encourage you to act now—this matching offer ends either when we reach our goal of $50,000 or on December 3rd. Please consider making your donation today to take advantage of this extraordinary gift, which will help ensure the financial stability of our beloved Church and leave a legacy of generosity for generations to come.
Thank you for your continued support and dedication.
