Armenian Apostolic Church
The Armenian Apostolic Church ((アルメニア語:Հայ Առաքելական Եկեղեցի, ''Hay Aṙak’elakan Yekeghetsi'')) is the national church of the Armenian people. It is part of Oriental Orthodoxy and is one of the most ancient Christian communities.〔The Antiquities of the Christian Church – Page 466 by Johann Christian Wilhelm Augusti, Georg Friedrich Heinrich Rheinwald, Carl Christian Friedrich Siegel〕 Armenia is an early center of Christianity, and it was the first country to adopt Christianity as its official religion in the early fourth century (traditionally in 301), by establishing this church.〔. Estimated dates vary from 284 to 314. Garsoïan (''op.cit.'' p.82), following the research of Ananian, favours the latter.〕 The church claims to have originated in the missions of Apostles Bartholomew and Thaddeus in the first century.
It is sometimes referred to as the Armenian Orthodox Church or Gregorian Church. The latter is not preferred by the church itself, as it views the Apostles Bartholomew and Thaddeus as its founders, and St. Gregory the Illuminator as merely the first official governor of the church. It is also simply known as the Armenian Church.
