On April 12, 2026, a group of 35 faithful parishioners from St. Mary Armenian Church of Yettem undertook a spiritually enriching pilgrimage to St. Sarkis Armenian Church of Santa Clarita. Organized by the Parish Council and led by Rev. Fr. Mashdots Keshishian, the visit served as a meaningful expression of fellowship and unity within the Diocesan community.

Upon arrival, the pilgrims joined the local faithful in prayer and worship during the Divine Liturgy, partaking in the sacred joy of communal worship and reaffirming their shared devotion to Christ. The spiritual gathering was followed by a warm and uplifting fellowship, during which parishioners of both communities came together to strengthen bonds of friendship and celebrate their common heritage and faith.

Traveling together by bus, the pilgrimage fostered an atmosphere of reflection, joy, and heartfelt connection, making the journey as memorable as the destination itself. The group returned home safely, carrying with them a renewed sense of spiritual fulfillment and gratitude.

The parish extends its sincere appreciation to Rev. Fr. Zaven Markosyan and the faithful of St. Sarkis Armenian Church for their gracious hospitality. May the Lord continue to bless both communities and strengthen their unity in His divine love.
