Today is Holy Friday: the most solemn day of the Armenian Church calendar, recalling the suffering, execution, and death of our Lord. These events are memorialized with readings from the psalms and gospels. Here are the Gospel accounts of Jesus’ last moments on the Cross:
At the directive of Diocesan Primate Bishop Daniel, all churches of the Eastern Diocese will take up a special collection on Easter Sunday, to aid Armenians who are suffering in Ukraine.
This week’s observance of Holy Week will go forward in the Eastern Diocese under observance of local safety regulations, with provision for in-person worship as well as the online broadcast of services.
With great sorrow, the Eastern Diocese mourns the loss of Dickran Toumajan, who passed away on April 7. He was 76.
