History

The Armenian Church of the Holy Translators is part of the Armenian Apostolic Orthodox Church, which has a rich Christian history dating its existence from the time of Christ and the apostles. Through apostolic succession, the Armenian Church traces her existence directly back to two of the original apostles, Thaddeus and Bartholomew, who brought the Gospel of Christ to Armenia. Armenia accepted Christianity as the official state religion around 301 A.D. through the conversion of King Drtad by St. Gregory the Enlightener, making Armenia the first nation to adopt Christianity as its state religion.
The Armenian Church of the Holy Translators is a parish of the Eastern Diocese of the Armenian Church of America which was officially established in Worcester, MA in 1898.

Today

The Armenian Church of the Holy Translators began as an official mission parish in April, 1998. As demographics changed dramatically in the greater Boston and Worcester areas, with many families moving from those areas to MetroWest, it was recognized that there was a need to develop a spiritual community for those relocated Armenian families.

Just like the early Christian communities, the MetroWest community began gathering for worship and fellowship in July, 1997 in parishioners' homes. As the number of families grew, this became impractical and a larger facility was found. Thanks to the generosity of the Sisters of St. Joseph at Bethany Hill in Framingham, MA the community relocated there in September, 1998 until November, 2001 at which time the Park St. Baptist Church in Framingham, MA was purchased to house our community.
