2013 COMMEMORATION
MINUTES ON THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE ADOPTED AT THE 10th GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE WORLD COUNCIL OF CHURCHES
From October 30, 2013 through November 8, 2013, a member of the Armenian Bar Association, Vanna Kitsinian, Esq. participated as a delegate on behalf of the Armenian Church at the World Council of Churches (WCC) 10th General Assembly in Busan, Korea.
The theme of the 10th General Assembly was “God of Life, Lead Us to Justice and Peace,” which was also a prayer that was echoed throughout the ten-day assembly. The theme was particularly fitting, as the meeting convened in South Korea, a country, which has remained divided for nearly 60 years and longs for peace and the reunification of the Korean Peninsula. |
