The Chancellery was constructed and furnished through the generosity of benefactors of the Mother See, Mr. and Mrs. Nazar and Artemis Nazarian of the United States. The architect of the building is Mr. Armand Avakian of the Unites States. The Chancellery was built by a local company, "Horizon-95".
Following the ribbon cutting ceremony, His Holiness congratulated everyone on this joyous occasion, delivering his blessing and appreciation to the benefactors, architects and builders. He also congratulated the employees of the chancellery who will be continuing their work in new and advanced working conditions to serve our Church, homeland and nation. The Chancellery will house the employees of the secretariat of the Catholicosate of all Armenians as well as additional departments providing primary coordination of works with different international and non-governmental organizations and state institutions.
In his remarks, His Holiness stated, "We are confident that through the new working conditions of the chancellery, the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin will reap the benefits and accomplish even greater work – Work that will fill the souls of our faithful sons and daughters with spiritual joy and consolation.".
At the end of his remarks, for the dedicated and expert work implemented at the Mother See, His Holiness bestowed Mr. Gagik Galstian, President of the construction company "Horizon-95" with one of the highest awards of the Armenian Church – the Order of St. Nerses the Graceful, and presented him with the medal of St. Nerses. At the conclusion of the ceremony, guests in attendance toured the various floors, offices and archival facilities of the Chancellery.
