| IN MEMORIAM DR. JOHN MANUELIAN With a deep sense of loss we announce the passing of Dr. John Manuelian of Winchester, Massachusetts.

He served as a delegate to the World General Assembly of the Holy See of Cilicia, and as a member and secretary of the Prelacy’s Executive Council during years from 1969 to 1976. He was a Prince of Cilicia, a Pillar of the Prelacy, and served on the board of trustees of St. Stephen’s Armenian Apostolic Church in Watertown, Massachusetts. He also served as physician to His Holiness Catholicos Khoren I and His Holiness Catholicos Karekin II during numerous pontifical visits to the United States. Funeral arrangements are not yet complete. Archbishop Oshagan will officiate over a National (Azkayin) Funeral that will take place at St. Stephen’s Church on Tuesday, October 8.

| BISHOPS SYNOD CONCLUDES The conference of Armenian Bishops concluded last Friday, September 27. From September 24 through 27, in the Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin, His Holiness Karekin II, Catholicos of All Armenians, and His Holiness Aram I, Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia, presided over the Bishops Synod of the Armenian Church, the first in six hundred years. Participating were 62 Archbishops and Bishops of the Armenian Church from around the world. During the opening session, the chancellery of the Synod was established as follows: Archbishop Khajag Barsamian and Archbishop Oshagan Choloyan were appointed to serve as co-chairmen; Archbishop Narek Alemezian and Archbishop Arshak Kachatryan were appointed to serve as secretaries. The Synod discussed the re-establishment of the tradition of canonization in the Armenian Church, and specifically focused on the issue of canonization of the victims of the Armenian Genocide. The canonization of the victims of the Genocide was adopted in principle. The committee was assigned the task of reviewing the canon and ritual of canonization, for presentation and approval at the next meeting. The Bishops discussed the work of the Liturgical Committee on the sacraments of Baptism and Chrismation. The Synod accepted a uniform text for both services. The challenges facing the Armenian Church were also discussed at length, especially concerning the liturgical and religious instruction, the Church’s educational and social mission, and the preservation of the Armenian identity. These concerns will also be given priority at the next meeting of Bishops that will take place in the autumn of 2014. The Bishops established a foundation to help those in need, especially children, in Armenia, Artsakh, and Syria. Two million US dollars were allocated for this foundation. Catholicoi Karekin II and Aram I closed the Synod with their blessings and prayers.
BISHOP ANOUSHAVAN WILL PRESENT REMEMBRANCE OF CATHOLICOI ZAREH I AND KHOREN I Bishop Anoushavan, who just returned to New York from Etchmiadzin where he participated in the Synod of Bishops, will travel to Bethesda, Maryland this weekend, where he will preside over the Divine Liturgy on Sunday October 6, at Soorp Khatch Church. Following the Liturgy, His Grace will give a special presentation commemorating the 50th anniversary of the passing of Catholicos Zareh I and the 30th anniversary of the passing of Catholicos Khoren I.

60th ANNIVERARY OF LADIES GUILD CELEBRATED AT ST. STEPHEN CHURCH IN WATERTOWN On the occasion of the 60th Anniversary of the establishment of St. Stephen’s Ladies Guild and in observance of “The Year of the Mother of the Armenian Family” as proclaimed by H.H. Aram I, Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia, St. Stephen’s Board of Trustees hosted a Ladies’ Guild appreciation banquet on Saturday evening September 28, 2013. Dr. Raffi Manjikian, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, served as the Master of Ceremonies. The church’s pastor, Archpriest Fr. Antranig Baljian, greeted the faithful and hard-working members of the Ladies Guild, recognizing them as the mothers of their own families as well as – collectively – the mother of our church family. Der Hayr related the story of Tabitha (also called Dorcas) as related in Acts 9:36-42, and described her as the very first Ladies’ Guild member who used her God-given talents to benefit the church’s mission. Astor Guzelian, whose mother was the first chairlady of the Guild when it was established in 1953 (three years before the church was built), highlighted various milestones in the history of the Guild. Board of Trustees member Tamar Kanarian developed a moving tribute to the guild members in the form of a slide presentation showing images of their various activities throughout the past decades. Special mention was made of two of the original members of the very first Ladies’ Guild Executive, Mrs. Anahid Changelian and Mrs. Margaret Merlesena. The food for the evening was prepared and served by members of the Board of Trustees and their families. Co-chairs for the event were Michael Guzelian and Heather Krafian. At the end of the program, current Guild Chairlady Isabel Avedikian thanked the Board of Trustees members for their thoughtfulness in hosting such a wonderful event.

| DER ARAM’S MISSION IN ARMENIA Noted journalist Tom Vartabedian has written a feature article describing the mission work of Archpriest Fr. Aram Stepanian that has taken him and his family to Armenia numerous times. Tom writes: “The affable pastor of Soorp Asdvadzadzin Church [Whitinsville] has made the country his second home and embraces the population he serves so religiously and profoundly in the name of salvation. He visits there 3-4 times a year, often with his wife Yn. Margaret and family by his side. If it isn’t operating a summer camp for orphans in July, it’s taking feeble tin shacks and turning them into respectable dwellings for the indigent. Over the past 15 years, 175 homes have either been constructed or refurbished.” Der Aram helps raise funds for his projects in Armenia, including a weekly lunch served to seniors.

| BIBLE READINGS Bible readings for Sunday, October 6, Fourth Sunday of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross are, Isaiah 17:7-14; 2 Corinthians 13:5-13; Mark 11:27-33. Examine yourselves to see whether you are living in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless, indeed, you fail to meet the test! I hope you will find out that we have not failed. But we pray to God that you may not do anything wrong—not that we may appear to have met the test, but that you may do what is right, though we may seem to have failed. For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth. For we rejoice when we are weak and you are strong. This is what we pray for, that you may become perfect. So I write these things while I am away from you, so that when I come, I may not have to be severe in using the authority that the Lord has given me for building up and not for tearing down. Finally, brothers and sisters, farewell. Put things in order, listen to my appeal, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you. Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the saints greet you. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with all of you. (2 Corinthians 13:5-13 For a listing of the coming week’s Bible readings

| STS. SAHAG AND HAMAZASP, THE PRINCES Today, Thursday, October 3, the Armenian Church commemorates the lives of the brothers Sts. Sahag and Hamazasp Ardzroonik, who together with other Armenian nobles revolted against Arab rule of Armenia. When captured they were given the choice of renouncing the Christian religion or death. They refused and were tortured and put to death.
72 HOLY DISCIPLES OF CHRIST This Saturday, October 5, the Armenian Church commemorates the 72 Holy Disciples of Christ. The reference comes from the Gospel of Luke (Chapter 10, Verse 1): “After this the Lord appointed seventy others and sent them on ahead of him in pairs to every town and place where he himself intended to go.” (Note: Some sources say 72 disciples; others say 70). These disciples remained true to the Lord and their calling, and spread the Gospel. They were not random choices, but rather true disciples whose labors carried the message of the Lord throughout the Roman Empire and beyond. All of the saints are remembered individually in the liturgical calendar of the church, but this day is set aside to remember them collectively.

| Portrait of Catholicos Vazken I, painted by Martiros Saryan |
| Birth of Vazken I, Catholicos of All Armenians (October 3, 1908) The 130th Catholicos of All Armenians, Vazken I, had one of the longest tenures in the history of the Armenian Church, almost forty years. During his reign, he presided over the rebirth of the Armenian Church in the former Soviet Union, after its near destruction in the Stalin period. He was born in Bucharest (Romania) on October 3, 1908. His father was a shoemaker and his mother a schoolteacher. His family moved to Odessa during World War I, where young Levon Baljian received his elementary education. After returning to Romania, he studied in the Misakian-Kesimian Armenian school of Bucharest and, from 1924-1926, in the higher school of trade in Bucharest. He taught in the Armenian schools of Bucharest from 1929-1943. He graduated from the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the University of Bucharest in 1936 and from the section of applied pedagogy in 1937. He also published a monthly in Armenian, Herg, in 1937-1938. His shift from philosophy to theology led him to study theology and divinity of the Armenian Apostolic Church in Athens. The Diocesan Council of the Armenian diocese of Romania decided to send him to Athens, where he was ordained a celibate priest (vartabed) in September 1943. Elected locum tenens of the diocese in November, he later became primate (1947-1955). He was ordained bishop in 1951 and became simultaneously primate of the Armenian diocese of Bulgaria in 1954. After the death of Catholicos Kevork VI in 1954, he was elected Catholicos of All Armenians in 1955. He managed to assert some degree of independence for the Armenian Church, especially after the 1960s, and developed a wide activity of construction. Many churches were rebuilt during his tenure, such as the Cathedral of Holy Etchmiadzin, the surrounding churches of St. Hripsime, St. Gayane, St. Shoghagat, the monasteries of Khor Virap and Geghard, etcetera. He also built several important buildings in the monastery of Holy Etchmiadzin: the monument to the victims of the Armenian Genocide, the fountain-memorial dedicated to Khrimian Hayrig, the Alex and Marie Manoogian Museum, and others. He published several works, such as “The Armenian of Musa Dagh in the Work of Franz Werfel” and “Khrimian Hayrig as an Educator.” Thanks to his efforts, various important Armenian manuscripts were saved and offered to the Matenadaran, the library of Armenian manuscripts of Yerevan. Among them were the Vehamayr Gospel (on behalf of his mother), which was used after the independence of Armenia by the presidents of the country to give their oath. During 1988, Vazken I voiced his concerns and his support for the cause of the Armenians of Karabagh. He restored the diocese of Artsakh (Karabagh) of the Armenian Church in 1989 and started the renovation and reopening of various churches and monasteries of the region. He was elected an honorary member of the National Academy of Sciences of Armenia in 1991 and was the first to receive the title of National Hero in Armenia (1994). The Catholicos passed away on August 18, 1994. The seminary of Sevan bears his name, the same as a school in Vanadzor. Two statues remember him in the Vazkenian seminary of Sevan (2008) and in Holy Etchmiadzin (2010). Note: Previous entries in “This Week in Armenian History” are on the Prelacy’s web site (www.armenianprelacy.org).
