KHRIMIAN HAYRIG POSTAGE STAMPS NOVEMBER 2007
As we celebrate Khrimian Hayrig for his vision and legacy, the Diocese's
Khrimian Lyceum students have been studying the contributions he bestowed on
the Armenian Church and nation. During their fine arts class, the Khrimian
Lyceum students created artwork inspired from photographs of the great
Catholicos.
First class US Postage stamps depicting the students' art as well as the
actual photograph of Khrimian Hayrig will be available at the Armenian
Studies department to benefit Khrimian Lyceum. The first set in the series
have sold out and a new series has been published. Please contact Gilda
Buchakjian Kupelian on 212.686.0710 ext 148 or [email protected]

DEPARTMENT OF CHRISTIAN EDUCATION'S NEW KINDERGARTEN CURRICULUM
With the school year now well underway, kindergarten classes in Sunday
Schools throughout the Diocese are starting to reap the benefits of a new
curriculum released by the Department of Youth and Education. The name of
the curriculum remains the same, but We Believe's format, text,
illustrations and color photographs are an updated, modern approach to
Christian teaching and story-telling that has had both teachers and students
captivated since its release in September.
An abundance of visual images and simple language are the key components in
the entirely new curriculum, with full-color lessons formatted in a
child-friendly newsletter style and accompanying story books and teacher
resources. Responses have been very positive. For further information about
these and other Diocesan Christian Education materials, to receive a
Christian Education catalogue electronically, or to place an order, please
contact Elise Antreassian at Diocesan headquarters,
[email protected] or (212 686-0710).

Prayer for the Week
Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, great in mercy and abounding in the gifts
of your beneficence, you who of our own will did endure the sufferings of
the cross and of the death on account of our sins, and did abundantly bestow
the gifts of your Holy Spirit on the blessed apostles; make us also, Lord,
we beseech you, sharers in your divine gifts, in the forgiveness of sins and
in the reception of the Holy Spirit.
