    According to Program Committee co-chair Nayiri Baljian, the event is
    intended to "provide an opportunity for American- and
    Canadian-Armenians to learn about their heritage of faith and to
    experience some of the best of what the Armenian Church has to
    offer." A variety of media, including live speakers, film, music,
    and liturgy will attempt to answer the questions: Where have we come
    from? Where are we going? How far can we go?

    Armenian Church 2006 will begin with an optional Hrashapar Service,
    Friday, December 1, 7:00 pm at St. Sarkis Church in Dearborn, MI. The
    main program will begin on Saturday, December 2 at 3:00 pm and

    will also feature a dinner with Vehapar and a concert by renowned
    Christian vocalist Salpi Keleshian. Anyone who is interested may
    attend a Hrashapar service on Friday evening currently scheduled for
    7:00 pm at St. Sarkis Armenian Church in Dearborn, MI.

    Armenian Church 2006 will take place at the Hyatt Regency in
    Detroit. Aram Hovagimian said on behalf of the Steering Committee,

    arrangements soon." A special hotel rate of $99 per night has been
    negotiated. A $40 registration fee will include dinner on Saturday
    evening and lunch on Sunday afternoon. Further details about the
