Pastoral Visit To The Buyukada Armenian Community
http://www.lraper.org/main.aspx?Action=DisplayNews&NewsCode=N0000007 69&Lang=ENG
On Saturday morning, 16 July, the Divine Liturgy in Armenian was
celebrated at the Buyuk Island St. Pacifico Latin Catholic Church, at
the wish of the Buyuk Island Armenian community. Father Tatul Anusyan
led the services and preached. Community members from Buyuk Island and
the other islands filled the church. Deacons Vagarsak Seropyan, Sevan
Civanyan, and Hayk Koparyan served the Eucharist. Sacred hymns were sung
by a group of youths successfully under the direction of Diran Allen
Nergizyan.
Father Tatul preached on the scripture passage Luke 11:30: "The Son of
Man will be a sign to this generation." He touched on the place of
Christ in our lives and described how He enlightens us day by day. After
summarizing the characteristics of a believer, Father Tatul stressed
that becoming informed is not sufficient. We have to carry the same
light to those around us, we need to engage in charitable works, and we
need at all times to praise God for what Christ has done in our lives.
After the Divine Liturgy the congregation expressed its pleasure and
hoped to have pastoral visits and divine services more often on Buyuk
Island.
