Armenian women share Day of Prayer
Thursday, March 3, 2005
Armenian women from all area Armenian churches will gather for a
special women's service on the International Day of Prayer, Friday,
March 4, at the Armenian Memorial Church, 32 Bigelow Ave., Watertown.
Held at 11 a.m., the ecumenical service will include an address in
Armenian by Nevart Khederian and one in English by the Rev. Dr.
Shoushan Salibian.
Silva Khoshafian of the First Armenian Church of Belmont,
chairman of the event, reports that women will be observing this Day
of Prayer throughout the world. Serving with her on the committee are
women from seven Armenian churches of all the Armenian faiths. The
Protestant churches are represented by Doris Markarian, Angel
Parseghian and Arpi Boynerian of the Armenian Memorial Church of
Watertown; and Silva Khoshafian and Sossi Haroutunian of the First
Armenian Church of Belmont. Committee members from Armenian Apostolic
churches are Elaine Westermark from Saint James Church of Watertown,
Nevart Khederian of Saint Stephen's Church of Watertown, Arpi
Kouzouian of Holy Trinity Armenian Church of Cambridge, Liza
Zeytoonian of Metro-West Armenian Church of Framingham, and Margaret
Stepanian of Saint Asdvadzazin Church of Whitinsville. Armenian
Catholics are represented on the committee by Liza Zeytoonian of the
Holy Cross Church of Belmont.
Women from all the Armenian churches are invited to this
inspirational service. This year's basic worship service was prepared
by the women of Poland and will be repeated in churches all over the
world. Following the service, there will be a Lenten luncheon served
in the Arpen Abrahamian Hall of the church. Reservations for the
luncheon, which will cost $5 per person, may be made by calling Silva
Khoshafian at 781-373-3075.
