The newly elected executive board of Hamazkayin Brazil, on August 4, 2019, received the blessing of Bishop Nareg Berberian, Primate of the Armenian Diocese of Brazil. The primate touched briefly on the founding and mission of Hamazkayin, referring also to the difficulties and challenges the organization faces in the diaspora, and especially in São Paulo, an old Armenian community and a big city. He conveyed his good wishes to the board and expressed willingness to support the organization; the doors of the Armenian center would always be open to Hamazkayin, he said.
