UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE PRELATE
LECTURE ON THE FIRST MONTHS OF THE GENOCIDE
ORGANIZED BY ST. MARY'S CHURCH
The St. Mary's Board of Trustees, under the auspices of H.E.
Archbishop Moushegh Mardirossian, Prelate, and by the initiative of the
Western Prelacy Outreach Committee, has organized a lecture presentation on
the topic "The Armenian Prelacy of Aleppo during the first months of the
Genocide". The lecture will take place on Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007, at 7:00
p.m.
Professor Vahram Shemmassian, Chair of the Armenian Studies
Department at Cal State Northridge, has been invited to lecture on the
humanitarian missionof the Prelacy of Aleppo at the start of the Genocide,
including but not limited to offering a safe haven for those who survived
the massacres.
The topic is a new and interesting one that covers the first
months when Armenians were forced out of their homeland into a foreign land,
eventually resulting in the establishment of the Diaspora as we know it
today. With this lecture, we are offered the chance to become familiarized
with the self-less actions of those who served the Armenian people, such as
clergy of the Holy See of Cilicia, despite being subject to persecution and
constraints themselves.
