    I hope this message finds you well in this season of the Holy Cross.

    Over the past week, our nation has been following the heartbreaking
    stories of the destruction wrought by Hurricane Sandy on the East
    Coast. We have witnessed the deadly force of this natural disaster-the
    loss of lives, widespread damage to property, and disruption of public
    services across the region.

    With this directive, I am asking our parishes to conduct a special
    collection for hurricane relief on Sunday, November 11,
    2012. Individuals can also contribute through our Diocesan website,
    www.armenianchurch-ed.net, where you can click on the `Donate' link
    (https://www.armenianchurch-ed.net/get-involved/donate-now/) and make
    a credit-card donation on our secure server. (Please note: In the
    lower part of the online information entry form, select the button `In
    Memory of,' and type `Hurricane Sandy Relief' in the memo bar that
    appears.)

    All funds collected should be sent to the Diocesan Center (630 Second
    Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10016) no later than Wednesday, November
    21. All the proceeds collected will go to the relief efforts, to be
    distributed through the American Red Cross.

    Above all, we ask everyone to pray for those affected by the
    storm. May our Lord grant eternal rest to the souls of those who have
    lost their lives, and may He bring a measure of comfort to their loved
    ones in this time of grief. We pray, too, that our Lord will touch the
    wounded with His healing hand, and guide the emergency crews carrying
    out the relief work across the region.

    With prayers,

    Archbishop Khajag Barsamian
    Primate
