Ararat Armenian Congregational Church

The Ararat Armenian Congregational Church is an Armenian Evangelical church established in 1913 in Salem, New Hampshire. Originally founded by refugees fleeing the Ottoman Empire, its purpose is to provide an intimate, Christ-centered place of worship for the local Armenian community and neighboring towns. Through weekly biblical sermons, youth fellowship weekends, and public cultural events like its annual Shish Kebab picnic, the church fosters tight-knit spiritual growth while keeping Armenian heritage vibrant.
