Khachkar Studios Releases Multilingual Church Revitalization Program

Khachkar Studios has released the third installment of its Masterclass series in English, Eastern Armenian, and Western Armenian, addressing declining church attendance among Armenian Americans. The program highlights stark statistics: only 7 per 1,000 Armenian American women ages 18–29 attend church on typical Sundays, placing U.S. Armenian churches 22nd among 23 surveyed Orthodox Christian groups.

The curriculum, "Revitalizing Churches Worldwide," outlines four goals and seven specific steps for parish leaders, emphasizing transparency, accountability, and performance through the T•A•P framework. It covers financial transparency, education, operational models, and social return on investment, with practical tools for tracking progress.

Khachkar Studios has committed $100 million to the educational initiative. The organization urges Armenian Americans to participate in weekly attendance and recruitment efforts.
