YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 18, ARMENPRESS. Governor of California Gavin Newsom commented on the arson attack on the Armenian center near the St. Gregory Armenian Apostolic Church of San Francisco in a Twitter post.  

“I’ve experienced so many wonderful, moving moments in this church. Heartbroken to hear of this — but I know this community lives well beyond these physical walls and will continue to provide the hope and faith it does to so many”, the California Governor tweeted.

A building next to an Armenian church in San Francisco’s Laurel Heights was burned overnight Thursday and the church’s leaders believe it was arson. The building has suffered a great loss. It housed an auditorium called Vasbouragan Hall, as well as offices for St. Gregory Armenian Church and other various organizations.
