    Western Diocese to Hold a Special Vigil for Hrant Dink
    Tonight, Jan. 19, at 8pm

    It is with great sorrow that we received the tragic news of the
    assassination of Hrant Dink, the prominent intellectual and editor in
    chief of the Agos newspaper in Istanbul, Turkey. Hrant Dink joins the
    group of martyrs who have sacrificed their lives for the international
    recognition of the Armenian Genocide. His dedication and courage has
    earned the admiration of not only his readers in Turkey, but the
    entire Armenian Diaspora.

    The Western Diocese of the Armenian Church will hold a special vigil
    tonight at 8:00pm at the Diocesan Headquarters, in Burbank, and would
    like to invite the faithful to join us in this solemn occasion. A
    short video will be shown of Mr. Dink's recent visit to the Diocese on
    November 5th, 2006.

    Our prayers go out to his friends and relatives who are grieving at
    this time, as well as to the entire Armenian Community inside Turkey
    and throughout the world.

    God bless his soul. Asdvadz Hokin Loosavore.
