At this month’s Diocesan Council meeting, members connected via video conference to plan upcoming Diocesan initiatives.
Diocesan Primate Bishop Mesrop Parsamyan presided over the meeting on Wednesday, August 20, which was led by council chair Richard Papalian.
Council members heard reports from the Primate and Diocesan Vicar, as well as from the Diocese’s executive director. A focus of the meeting was a discussion on ways to strengthen Diocesan outreach to parishes in various program and ministry areas. Members also reviewed the development office’s plans for the annual Bishop’s Appeal, which will proceed through the fall season.
The Diocesan Council will meet again in September.
