On December 29, 2025, the Feast of St. Stephen the Protodeacon was celebrated at St. Apkar Armenian Church of Scottsdale, Arizona.
The celebration was also made meaningful as it marked the Rev. Fr. Zacharia Saribekyan's 30th anniversary of ordination of the parish priest Rev. Fr. Zacharia Saribekyan.
The Very Rev. Fr. Yeremia Abgaryan, Vicar General of the Western Diocese participated in the celebration of the Divine Liturgy, read the Diocesan Primate's message of blessing and commendation addressed to Fr. Zacharia and took part the subsequent banquet held in the Melikian Hall of the church.
