Christian Community Events
The Armenian Missionary Association of Canada is pleased to invite Montrealers and Torontonians to an inspiring and enlightening visual pilgrimage through the ancient monasteries of Armenia, presented by internationally recognized American-Armenian architect Ronald Arthur Altoon, FAIA, LEED AP, former president of the American Institute of Architects and author of seven acclaimed books on design. This captivating presentation is the result of Mr. Altoon’s extensive research on 41 ancient Armenian monasteries, dating back to the 5th, 7th, 11th, 13th, and 14th centuries — many of which predate Europe’s most iconic cathedrals. His work is based on 18 research trips to Armenia and Artsakh, during which he studied and photographed these remarkable sacred sites. While Armenia is well known as the first nation to adopt Christianity as a state religion, it is less widely known that it may also be the cradle of global church architecture. Mr. Altoon’s lecture will explore this powerful legacy and showcase the…

Christian Community Events
This is a day for all Canadians to recognize and celebrate the unique heritage, diverse cultures and outstanding contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples. The Canadian Constitution recognizes these three groups as Aboriginal peoples, also known as Indigenous peoples.
Although these groups share many similarities, they each have their own distinct heritage, language, cultural practices and spiritual beliefs.
In cooperation with Indigenous organizations, the Government of Canada chose June 21, the summer solstice, for National Aboriginal Day, now known as National Indigenous Peoples Day. For generations, many Indigenous peoples and communities have celebrated their culture and heritage on or near this day due to the significance of the summer solstice as the longest day of the year.
