Portland: Anglicans to commemorate Armenian Holocaust Sunday
The Anglican Cathedral of St. Paul will commemorate the Armenian
Holocaust at High Mass on Sunday.
After the 10 a.m. Mass, a procession will take place to the Armenian
Community Memorial on Cumberland Avenue in Portland.
This will be the third year St. Paul’s Cathedral has marked the
Armenian Genocide by the Ottoman Empire between 1915 and 1923, when
more than 1.5 million Armenians died.
Portland’s Armenian community dates back to the late 19th century. A
memorial was dedicated to the community in Portland last year.
The cathedral is at 279 Congress St.
