    Mass, procession will mark Armenian genocide


    The Anglican Cathedral of St. Paul in Portland will commemorate the
    Armenian holocaust at a High Mass at 10 a.m. Sunday.

    After the Mass at the cathedral at 279 Congress St., a procession
    will go to the Armenian Community Memorial on Cumberland Avenue.

    A reception will be held in St. Paul's Parish Hall after the
    procession. All are welcome.

    More than 1.5 million Armenians died during the genocide by the
    Ottoman Empire between 1915 and 1923. A memorial was dedicated last
    year to the Armenian community in Portland, which dates back to the
    late 19th century.
