Information About

Union Of The Armenian Evangelical Churches In The Near East




From its inception, the Armenian Evangelical Church has stressed the importance of education. It now operates 23 schools and four high schools and owns the only university in the diaspora: Haigazian University , member of the Association of International Colleges and Universities-Europe Inc., with an enrolment of 650 students. It operates four conference centers in Syria, Lebanon, Iran and Turkey. Together with the Arabic-speaking Evangelical churches, the Union owns and operates a secondary school in Aleppo and the Near East School Of Theology in Beirut (the latter also supported by foreign missionary agencies). With the Armenian Apostolic and Armenian Catholic Catholicossates it operates the old people's homes in Aleppo and Beirut, and a Sanatorium in Azounieh , Lebanon.

It has developed ecumenical ties with several churches and fraternal relations with the Armenian Evangelical Union Of North America , the Armenian Evangelical Union Of France and the Armenian Evangelical Union Of Armenia . In spite of grave problems of emigrations and persecution, the Union continues to function with a growing awareness of its mission in its territories.
