Dear Armenians and Friends,
The Trustees of the Armenian Church of St. Gregory the Illuminator Singapore and the Armenian community in Singapore would like to invite you to join us and other fellow Armenians and friends from around the world in celebrating the 175th Anniversary of the consecration of the first church in Singapore, the Armenian Church of St. Gregory the Illuminator. 

Consecrated on 26 March 1836, the Armenian Church of St. Gregory the Illuminator Singapore to this day endures as an important symbol of the strength of our communities worldwide. A series of religious and cultural events are planned in Singapore for 26-27 March 2011, and we are expecting guests to join us from around the world to celebrate this unique and historical occasion.

FUNDING
The Church is funded solely by generous support from Armenians living in the region and abroad. The Church does not have any overheads or staff, and 100% of all funds are deployed for the careful maintenance and repair of this historical monument and the surrounding gardens and Parsonage.
The Trustees kindly ask that each participant donate a minimum of $600 Singapore Dollars (~$460 USD) per person to the Church, to be paid upon arrival.
