Pourquoi FGBMFI
"Quelles réponses l'église a-t-elle pour les hommes - et les femmes aussi - confrontés aux véritables complexités horribles du monde des affaires moderne ? Des personnes avec d'énormes responsabilités, où des centaines d'emplois dépendent des décisions qu'elles prennent. J'ai eu des hommes comme ça qui sont venus me voir, Demos, et franchement, je ne pouvais même pas comprendre leurs questions. Que sais-je des contrats de travail et des gels de prix ? Je n'ai aucune expérience dans le monde des affaires."
"Sure, we clergy can give comfort and counsel to a man who's down and out, but what about the man who makes it? He needs God just as much, and ministers like me don't even know the language."
- Dr. Charles Price, Evangelist (from The Happiest People on Earth by Demos Shakarian)
"Just think how many more businessmen there are in the world than preachers. If businessmen should ever start to spread the gospel..."
- Demos Shakarian, Founder of FGBMFI

Learn About Our Heritage
A journey enriched by divine inspirations
In the early 1900's... led by God, the Shakarian family escaped the Holocaust in Armenia and made their home in Downey, California where they started a 20-Acre dairy with three cows. Faith in God, good judgment and hard work eventually multiplied that first little herd one-thousand fold, until in 1943 the Shakarian herd had reached three thousand, the largest private dairy in the United States at that time. Their story is found in the book, “The Happiest People on Earth,” read by millions of people and translated into 25 languages Follow this link to learn more about our history
