St Sarkis Armenian Apostolic Church, Charlotte, North Carolina

St. Sarkis Armenian Apostolic Church in Charlotte, North Carolina, is a cherished spiritual home for the Armenian community, preserving the deep faith, traditions, and history of the Armenian Apostolic Oriental Orthodox Church. As one of the original Oriental Orthodox churches, it traces its roots to the early Ecumenical Councils of Nicaea (325), Constantinople (381), and Ephesus (431), which shaped Christian doctrine.

Today, the Armenian Church unites communities worldwide, including those formed by survivors of the Armenian Genocide (1915–1923). St. Sarkis Church serves as a testament to this enduring legacy, connecting its members to the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin, the spiritual heart of the Armenian Church. With faith as its cornerstone, the church continues to meet the spiritual needs of Armenians in Charlotte and beyond, fostering a sense of unity and devotion to Christ.
