Saturday, July 27, 2019 marks the 36th anniversary of the martyrdom of the Lisbon 5, Simon Yahniyan, Vatche Daghlian, Sarkis Abrahamian, Ara Kuhrjulian, Setrak Ajemian, who gave their lives in furtherance of our just cause.
By the ordinance of H.E. Archbishop Moushegh Mardirossian, Prelate, on Sunday, July 29, prayers for the souls of the Lisbon 5 will be offered during “Der Voghormya,” given that the day coincides with the feast of the Transfiguration of our Lord, a dominical feast on which requiem service is not conducted.
We invite our faithful to join us in honoring the undying legacy and sacrifice of our modern-day heroes.
