Every day, the residents of Janfida village in Armavir Marz, hear the voice of namaz (Muslim prayer) from the bordering Turkey. They don’t hide their discontent in respect to the fact that no church bells ring here. The community budget was scant and their co-villager Artur Karapetyan living in Russia assumed the charitable responsibility to support the construction of a Church. Construction of the sacred place started in 2010 and today St. Karapet Church was consecrated.
With Patriarchal Encyclical of the Catholicos of All Armenians the philanthropist was granted an Order of St. Gregory the Illuminator.
