Repose of Souls service at Holy Etchmiadzin in memory of April war heroes

Following the Divine Liturgy in the Mother Cathedral of Holy Etchmiadzin, a solemn Repose of Souls service was offered in memory of the brave heroes who died in Artsakh (Nagorno Karabakh) during the war in April 2016.

His Holiness Karekin II, Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians, presided over the service with the participation of the members of Brotherhood of Holy Etchmiadzin

Services were offered in all churches in the Diocese of the Armenian Apostolic Church.

Prime Minister Karen Karapetyan attended the Service.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
