Who
are church servers?
Church servers include deacons, altar servers, Sunday School teachers
and choir members.
Does this fee
cover all program expenses?
No. The fee covers only a fraction of the overall expenses.
For church-servers, the Prelacy and the local church share the
rest of the expenses; whereas for non-church servers, the Prelacy
and the participant (not the local church) share the rest of
the expenses.
What is a church
server’s scholarship?
In accordance with the long established tradition, churches
provide a $200 scholarship to the Armenian Prelacy per church
server participant from their own parish. This scholarship is
in addition to the participant's registration fee.
If I am a church-server
do I automatically receive the $200 scholarship?
No. The local church (Pastor and Board of Trustees) will decide
to whom and how many $200 scholarships they want to give out.
The pastor’s signature on the registration form signifies
that a $200 scholarship will be granted.
Since non-church
servers do not receive the $200 scholarship, why do they then
pay only $100 more?
The Prelacy absorbs the other $100.
