On Tuesday, January 31, 2023, H.G. Bishop Torkom Donoyan, Prelate, accompanied by Rev. Fr. Boghos Baltayan, paid a visit to the Tavlian preschool-kindergarten. The Bishop was welcomed by the schools principal Mrs. Garin Choukhadarian teachers and students.
During the visit, Bishop Donoyan toured the campus and witnessed a short program performed by the students. The Prelate highly commended the role of the preschool within the life of the community, and stated; “The Prelacy schools give a unique source of hope and inspiration in the lives of Armenians in Western America. All our schools are on a course of permanent growth, prosperity and self-improvement. The Tavlian preschool-kindergarten is in immediate need of expansion in order to provide a greater number of students with an opportunity to receive Armenian education. Therefore, all of us, as a whole and spiritual and national leadership, should ponder about how we will see the preschool-kindergarten on a larger campus. Hopefully, in the words of the Bible, “…and hope does not put us to shame…,” God willing, we will see those days too.”
