The ceremony of canonization of the Armenian Genocide victims will
take place on April 23, 2015 at the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin.
The decision was made at the Bishops' Synod convened at the Mother
See of Holy Etchmiadzin November 11-13 under the presidency of His
Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians;
and His Holiness Aram I, Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia.
The Synod also adopted a statement, in which it called on the Christian
world to join the prayer on the 100th commemoration of the Armenian
Genocide.
Members of the Bishops' Synod also called on the international
community to continue the efforts towards international recognition
and condemnation of the Armenian Genocide and reestablish the "just
rights" of the Armenian people.
The Synod expressed concern over the ongoing conflicts in different
parts of the world, namely Syria and Iraq and Ukraine, which result
in numerous human losses and destructions.
The statement criticized the military actions incited by Azerbaijan
at the border of Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh, the most recent
demonstration of which was the downing of the Armenian helicopter.
