Message of His Holiness Karekin II on the Commemoration Day of the Holy Martyrs of the Armenian Genocide
Indeed, fidelity to the heritage of our ancestors, pan-national solidarity, and a profound sense of duty toward the homeland are the guarantors of our endurance and the preservation of our independent statehood.
Today, the memory of our holy martyrs calls us to recognize the urgency of national unity. Through our unity, God works and bestows His blessings and grace. Guided by this truth, beloved ones, we shall ensure the security and prosperity of our fatherland and fulfill the visions and dreams we hold for the future.
With this faith, let us lift our prayers to God and seek the intercession of our holy martyrs that genocidal crimes may have no place in the life of humanity and that, under the grace of the Risen Christ, our homeland and people across the world may dwell in peace and safety. United in love and steadfast in hope, may we be empowered to overcome the trials that lie ahead.
