LOS ANGELES, SEPTEMBER 2, ARMENIANS TODAY – NOYAN TAPAN. The special
Centennial Celebration of the Birth of the Late Catholiocs Vasken I
will be held at the U.S. Western Diocese on September 17, 2008.

Vasken I was born in Bucharest in 1908. His Holiness led the Armenian
Holy Apostolic Church from 1955 to 1994 as the Catholicos and
Supreme Patriarch of All Armenians. During the Communist regime, the
Armenian Church endured persecution and financial hardship. Despite
the numerous challenges, His Holiness was able to successfully lead
the Church through those difficult times.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
