    Western Diocese of the Armenian Church

    His Eminence Archbishp Hovnan Derderian, Primate, Western
    Diocese of the Armenian Church of North America, is pleased
    to announce that the Honorable Dennis P. Zine, Los Angeles
    City Councilman, representing the Third District, will be
    the Guest Speaker at a Prayer Breakfast on Saturday,
    November 22nd at 9:30 a.m. The Prayer Breakfast, to be
    held at the Diocesan Complex in the Armen and Gloria Hampar
    Reception Room, will afford members of the Armenian
    community an opportunity to hear firsthand from Councilman
    Dennis Zine his priorities, goals and objectives as a
    representative of the residents of San Fernando Valley. His
    district includes the communities of Canoga Park, Reseda,
    Tarzana, West Hills, Winnetka and Woodland Hills.-a
    population of nearly 300,000 residents.

    The Prayer Breakfast is organized by the members of the
    Diocesan organization, the Government Relations and Protocol
    Committee. Archbishop Derderian initiated the establishment
    of this committee to improve communication, to share
    dialogue, and to develop an ongoing relationship and
    partnership between the Diocese and all levels of Government
    to better serve and represent the community.

    Councilman Zine was born, raised and educated in Los
    Angeles and was first elected to represent the Third Council
    District in 2001 and reelected in 2005. He began his public
    service career over 30 years ago when he joined the Los
    Angeles Police Department eventually reaching the rank of
    Sergeant. Within the LAPD, he was elected three times to
    the Board of Directors of the Los Angeles Police Protective
    League. Furthering his commitment to public safety,
    Councilman Zine was sworn in as a Los Angeles Police
    Department Reserve Officer in 2001 assigned to the Fugitive
    Warrant Detail where he is involved in the apprehension of
    felony suspects.

    Councilman Zine's priorities as an elected official include
    improving quality of life, reducing crime, increasing public
    safety and addressing transportation issues. In San
    Fernando Valley, to improve the quality of life for all
    residents, he formed the P.O.S.S.E.

    (People Organizing a Safe, Secure Environment), a volunteer
    group comprised of over 400 concerned citizens who are
    professionally trained to go out into their communities and
    rid them of blight such as graffiti, abandoned cars,
    potholes, unkempt properties, and illegal sign postings.

    Councilman Zine currently lives in the West San Fernando
    Valley and has two sons, Chris, who is an officer in the Los
    Angeles Police Department, and Eric, who is preparing to
    join the Air Force.

    The event is free and open to the community. For further
    information, please contact the Western Diocese at
    (818)558-7474.
