    Armenian community of Germany to have church in Halle
    10.03.2009 14:03 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Christian religious Armenian community of
    Amensdorf district of Halle, Germany, has obtained a land with a
    construction which earlier hosted a Catholic church.

    The community's shepherd, hieromonk Aivazian said this is the only
    church owned by Armenians in Germany.

    `The Catholic church hasn't functioned for three years already. And we
    are happy that with the city administration's permission it will again
    bring the faithful under its roof,' said Herbert Siegfried, chairman
    of the Amensdorf society.

    The opening ceremony will take place in June or July.

    Over 500 000 ethnic Armenians need a church in Germany, reported the
    website of the Armenian community of Berlin.
