    Condolence Message of His Holiness Karekin II
    Supreme Patriarch and Catholicos of All Armenians

    We learned of the airplane tragedy on the Yerevan-Sochi flight and the
    resulting great loss of life with deep pain and sorrow.  We mourn these
    unexpected and terrible losses with the family and friends of the victims of
    this disaster and all of our people.

    On behalf of the Brotherhood of the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin and the
    Supreme Spiritual Council, we extend our sympathies to all affected by this
    tragedy.

    We offer prayers to God, that he accept the souls of the victims in the
    illuminated heights of heaven and grant them blessed rest and peace.  We ask
    that our Lord, through the grace of the Holy Spirit, bestow patience and
    consolation to the families and relatives of those who perished, and the
    strength to withstand the sorrow of their loss.

    Appealing for unceasing prayers and divine blessings in memory of the
    victims of this tragedy.  Amen.

    Sorrowfully,


    KAREKIN II
    CATHOLICOS OF ALL ARMENIANS
