Remembering our martyrs

11 years ago

Each April 24, Armenians around the world mourn the 1.5 million victims of the Armenian Genocide.


During last year’s centennial, we were privileged to offer our prayers in Armenia as those martyrs were canonized as saints by the Armenian Church.

This year, as Armenians face new challenges, we pray for peace in their memory.


(For further thoughts on the Genocide and the challenges facing Armenia, please see Doug’s blog.)
