Armenian Church of the Holy Resurrection in New Britain, CT - consecrated in 1980 🇦🇲⛪️
I could tell that it was an Armenian church because many of the churches have pointed domes!

Sue is the absolute best kind of public servant. She'd be a huge asset to Rhode Islanders in statewide office! @sueanderbois.bsky.social
UPDATE - Providence Councilor @sueanderbois.bsky.social confirms this is for LG.
She’ll be joining a field of two other Democrats running: Lt. Gov. @sabinamatos.bsky.social
and fmr. state Sen. @cindycoyneri.bsky.social
May see 1-2 other Dems join. @billbartholomew.bsky.social? Councilman Xay?

Oh wow!! My city councilor is running for Lieutenant Governor of Rhode Island!! 😯
Providence Ward 3 Councilor @sueanderbois.bsky.social's entry into the LG race opens up a third City Council seat next year. (Wards 5 and 11 have term-limited councilors.)
One person who *won't* be running is School Board member @coreyjonespvd.bsky.social, who narrowly lost to AnderBois in 2022.
