Surp Krikor Armenian Church re-opens in Istanbul
Published: 1/15/2012
The Surp Krikor Lusavoric Armenian Church was reopened in Istanbul
yesterday after a restoration by Sisli Municipality.
A religious mass was held at the church in Istanbul's Karakoy
neighborhood. "I have been attending interreligious dialogue meetings
for years, but in my opinion, no significant progress has been made so
far because there are still interreligious clashes around the world,"
Acting Armenian Patriarch Aram Atesyan said after the religious mass.
The restoration lasted about six months at the Surp Krikor Lusarovic
Armenian Church, which is the oldest Armenian church in Istanbul.
