    On a day that started with His Holiness Karekin II delivering the
    opening prayer in the House of Representatives and ended with the
    favorable vote in the House Foreign Affairs Committee which referred
    the Armenian Genocide resolution to the floor, the Armenian
    Catholicos also stopped at the landmark Washington building which is
    being converted into the Armenian Genocide Museum and Memorial.

    In remarks upon the conclusion of the blessing of the house service,
    His Holiness said: "I bring my appreciation for your efforts to
    memorialize the victims of the Armenian Genocide." Standing with the
    Catholicos are Near East Foundation Board of Directors Chairman Shant
    Mardirossian, Armenian Genocide Museum and Memorial Building and
    Operations Committee member Zaven Tachdjian, His Eminence Archbishop
    Khajak Barsamian of the Diocese of the Armenian Church, AGMM Board of
    Trustees Chairman Hirair Hovnanian, AGMM Committee Chairman Van
    Krikorian, former chairwoman of the Armenian Assembly of America
    Board of Directors Annie Totah, and former chairman of the Armenian
    Assembly of America Board of Directors Peter Vosbikian.
