“St. Gregory of Narek is venerated as a saint both in the Catholic Church and the Armenian Apostolic Church, which is not in full communion with Rome. The Armenian Catholic Church, an Eastern Church in union with Rome, has about 1 million members.”

The only problem is that St. Gregory was not a member of the Armenian Catholic Church. He was Oriental Orthodox. Not that I am complaining about the honor. I just find it stunning.
