Sunday, January 29, following the church service, all the parishioners gathered together at The Paul Family Hall. This time they would not only have coffee and cookies, but enjoy the taste of the famous Frosted Cupcake Milkshake prepared by our own Raffi Arabatyan, which contained classic vanilla cupcake with creamy vanilla frosting, chocolate pieces, and colorful sprinkles.

The Emeryville-based F’real food company hosted children from Make-A-Wish in its local milkshake lab to create distinctive flavors. Raffi Arabatyan won the contest after a landslide social media vote, with fantastic support for the Bay Area Armenian community.

Everyone had a chance to taste this delicious milkshake and had their picture taken with Raffi. It was a joyous Sunday afternoon for everyone.
