History

Holy Trinity Armenian Church, 14 Woodlawn Ave. West, will be opened and dedicated Sunday, fulfilling the 25-year-old dream of the Armenian community in Toronto. It was back in 1928 that the Armenians founded a congregation, but, being few in number and without funds, were unable to build a church of their own. For two years they worshiped at St. Stephen's Anglican Church and then moved to the Church of the Holy Trinity, which was more central. There for the past 23 years they have held their services in the chapel."We rejoice in the fact that they now have their own church although we will miss them," said Rev. Canon John C. Frank. "We were very glad to have them and always got along very happily together." Canon Frank added that they deserve a great deal of credit, because although they are few - about 65 families - they have succeeded in preserving their own form of worship. In recognition of the hospitality received over the years from Holy Trinity, the Armenian Church is being named after it. As the largest donor to the building fund, tradition makes Carl Benlian the 'godfather' of the new church. "We decided to call it Holy Trinity for sentimental reasons - the years we worshiped in the downtown church," declared Mr. Benlian. The new church will have a seating capacity of 150 in the nave with accommodation for 200 in the basement. The latter will be used for Sunday school and mid-week activities. His Grace Archbishop Tiran Nersoyan, Primate of the Armenian Church of North America, will officiate at the dedication service Sunday morning, assisted by the Pastor, Rev. Khoren Mamigonian of St. Catherines. Also present will be Rt. Rev. A. R. Beverley, Bishop of Toronto, and Canon Frank, representing the Church of England.
