Opposing Villains With God’s Love

“We should not allow that the dark deeds of the villains shadow
God’s love and light. Raise your voices to be heard to the genocide
perpetrators and masterminds of the present and past. Let them
know that they will not go unpunished,” Father Thaddeus Abdalian of
Trinity Church in Cheltenham, Pennsylvania, stated in a speech to
15.000 protesters on April 30.

The protest march, that according to Armenian Mirror Spectator
was organized by Million Voices For Darfur organization, was aimed
at condemning the genocide in Sudan that has claimed lives of 400
thousand people and left two million displaced since 2003.

“The Armenians’ support to this movement is logical as a nation that
suffered the first genocide of the 20th century. Nothing has changed
for 100 years. People are still killing each other. We have to learn
lessons and put an end to violence,” Father Abdalian said.
