St Gregory Armenian Apostolic Church

Our Mission

"St. Gregory the Illuminator Armenian Apostolic Church, located in Granite City, Illinois. We are a parish of the Eastern Prelacy of the Armenian Apostolic Church of America (under the jurisdiction of the Catholicosate of the Great House of Cilicia), headquartered in New York City. Our Prelate is His Eminence Archbishop Anoushavan Tanielian. Der Torkom and his family were recently relocated to the Worchester, MA parish (June 2019). We have eagerly waited for a permanent priest and we were blessed in March 2021 to have Der Taniel and Yeretsgin Vana Manjikian and their son Datev assigned to our parish. Look at the Home and the Upcoming Events pages for any updates to our Badarak schedule as well as other events."
