WESTERN DICOESE FORWARDS INITIAL INSTALLMENT OF $20,000 THROUGH
AMERICAN RED CROSS
TO KATRINA VICTIMS
First Installment of $30,000 of Aid to St. John Garabed
Armenian Church in Baton Rouge Sent Last Week
As the community and faithful are well aware, victims of the
devastating Hurricane Katrina are still in dire need of help. Thanks
to the efforts initiated by His Eminence Archbishop Hovnan Derderian,
Primate of the Western Diocese, a Diocesan-wide fundraising is still
in effect in the Western Diocese.
In his initial plea the Primate urged the faithful to lend a helping
hand to the victims, as a result of which a large number of faithful
sent their contributions to both the Diocese, as well as directly to
the Red Cross.
As a first installment of aid, the Western Diocese has forwarded a
check for $20,000 representing sums collected thus far, to the Red
Cross.
We would like to remind the faithful that during the tsunami in the
Indian Ocean last year, the Western Diocese organized a similar
fundraising thanks to which the Diocese contributed $28,100.55 to the
American Red Cross. We once again make a plea to the faithful of the
Diocese to contribute and support the fundraising efforts, to help
the victims of Hurricane Katrina. Let us recall that following the
1988 earthquake in Armenia several countries came to our immediate
assistance, with humanitarian aid. It is now our turn to do the same,
for all those who have suffered.
We extend our gratitude to the faithful of the Western Diocese who
have already contributed to this effort.
Checks can be made payable to:
