A Plea to Save the Armenian Church of the Martyrs

In the almost 112 years since its first worship service, Armenians from various walks of life have entered through the doors of the Armenian Church of the Martyrs in Worcester, Mass. The building has served our people well throughout the years, whether during the Armenian Genocide, the Great Depression, the civil war in Lebanon, or the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Armenian Church of the Martyrs has been, and continues to be, a place of joy, family, fellowship, and faith. We desire to move forward with our ministry so that we can continue to serve the future. This desire will be difficult to achieve, however, with the daunting challenge that we currently face.

  1. I’m curious – was the church built new specifically to be used as an Armenian Evangelical church or was it a previously existing church building that was later obtained by Armenians?

  2. This may be the first Protestant church in the United States but the first Armenian Church in the United States is on Laurel Street. The Ormond Street Church is not the first Armenian parish in the US.
