Armenian Church News... Fund raising dinner...

View in browser Diocese of the Armenian Church of the United Kingdom and Ireland Armenian Church News Dear Friends, As you may be aware, The Ladies' Committee of the Primate's Office are currently organising a fundraising dinner to aid in the restoration of the Tomb of our Lord which resides in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Jerusalem, on Friday 11th November. There will be a short film presentation, with guest speakers reflecting on ‘Armenian Jerusalem' and what it means to make a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. As well as enjoying delicious food with family and friends, it will be especially interesting to those who have already been on pilgrimage, or those who may be interested in going in the future. Indeed, the details of upcoming pilgrimages will be announced. The guest speakers, who will share their experiences of Jerusalem, are: Dr. Harry Hagopian (International lawyer & Legal Consultant, and native of Jerusalem), Reverend Canon Anthony Ball (Church of England), Fr. John Whooley (Catholic Church) and Fr. Paret Yeretsyan. If you are interested in joining us for this special event, please could you contact Jeanine Gulvanessian on 07950 305336 to reserve your ticket by Sunday, 6th November, so that the catering arrangements can be finalised.
