Today at 6:00 PM, ACYO (Armenian Church Youth Organization)
members will offer a special prayer for the repose of the
souls of the victims of 9/11 and in remembrance of the
tragic events that took place on this date eight years ago.
His Eminence Archbishop Hovnan Derderian, Primate,
accompanied by Diocesan Clergy, will lead the special prayer
during the first day of Senior ACYO Sports Weekend in Costa
Mesa.
The following statement was issued by the Primate on the
eighth anniversary of 9/11:
`The victims of September 11, 2001 should always be
remembered in our prayers. We cannot live a careless life.
Today we remember especially the beloved ones of the victims
of 9/11 who continue to suffer for their great loss during
that tragic day. `If one member suffers, all suffer
together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together'
(1 Corinthians 12: 26). These words of Apostle Paul apply to
us all. We pray for peace in the world, for people who
suffer in wars, for children who are deprived from food and
live in dreadful poverty, but above all we pray for the
protection of America, as a beacon of hope and freedom to
the world.'
The Western Diocese of the Armenian Church of North
America, providing spiritual guidance and leadership to the
Armenian Apostolic community, is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit,
tax-exempt organization comprised of more than 50 churches
in 16 western states. It was established in 1898 as the
Diocese of the Armenian Church encompassing the entire
United States and Canada. In 1927 the Western Diocese was
formed to exclusivly serve the western United States.
