Sudan's Armenian community had its own church, the St. Gregory the Illuminator Armenian Apostolic Church (in Armenian Sourp Krikor Lousavoritch).[2] It is under the jurisdiction of the See of Holy Echmiadzin. As of 2009, there are not as many Armenians in Khartoum, Sudan. Most of Sudana Hyes (armenian: "Sudanese Armenians") have moved, to the U.S. and parts of Europe.
