"DNORHNEK" Home Blessing for
Every Armenian Family It is customary to have our homes blessed by a priest, especially during the
first 40 days after Sourp Dzenount. It is a beautiful ceremony through which we bring the presence of our Lord into the heart of our own home for protection, happiness and prosperity.
To
request a 'Dnorhnek' please contact the ACCC's Church Wardens at St Yeghiche Church, Cranley Gardens, South Kensington, London SW7 |

German Documentary "AGHET" A 90-Minute
documentary in German and firstly shown on German Television and now being screened publicly in Germany has been widely acclaimed as a robust response to all those who
deny the veracity of the Armenian Genocide.
The Documentary is on U-Tube but is in 10 segments. There have been efforts by Turkish authorities to have it
removed from U-Tube, but the following link has been set up showing the 92-Minute Documentary in its entitity:

British government 'should recognise' The Armenian Genocide Baroness Cox writes for ePolitix.com ahead of her oral question on the Armenian Genocide:
I am asking Her Majesty's Government whether it will reconsider its position on the recognition of the Armenian Genocide –
sadly, without any hope of a change in the British government's consistent policy of refusal to acknowledge the truth. PLEASE CLICK HERE FOR FULL ARTICLE

Statement by the Armenian Community & Church Council of Great Britain
The Armenian Community & Church Council of Great Britain (ACCC) has followed
with deep concern the developments which have on the 10th of October 2009 culminated in the signing of the Protocols for the establishment of Diplomatic
relations between the Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Turkey.
The ACCC respects the absolute right of the
Government of Armenia, as a Sovereign State, to enter into Agreements which they consider would benefit in one way or another the State and population of the Republic of
Armenia and we hope and pray that Agreements between Armenia and Turkey, as with all other States, result in the establishment of good neighbourly and Diplomatic
relations, peaceful co-existence, and the improvement of the economic status of Armenia and its population.
The ACCC unreservedly
reaffirms its support of the Independent Republic of Armenia, and would under all circumstances do all within its abilities to make certain that Armenia flourishes as an
independent State and maintains a position in the World as a respected, honourable and peaceful State, enjoying good neighbourly relations with all its neighbours.
However, the ACCC wishes to express its strong reservations at the wisdom of entering into the Agreements defined by the Protocols as it considers that there are certain
provisions within them which would be detrimental to the interests of the Armenian Nation.
The Agreements involve the concession of historical
Armenian heritage, human and legal rights, and the recognition of - and reparation for - the crime of Genocide committed against Armenians in Ottoman Turkey between
1915 and 1921 by introducing an element of doubt to the veracity of the Genocide.
We therefore sincerely hope that the Government and National Assembly of the
Republic of Armenia will take into consideration the serious concerns expressed by communities and organisations within Armenia as well as the Diaspora and
will act accordingly during their deliberations for the ratification of the Agreements. |

The accc website and its Events Diary is a service for the community. Organisations should note that the
events diary is simply a facility by which events organised in the UK can be listed in one place so that all members of the community may have the ability to see what
events are happening at any specific time. Organisations should therefore take steps to make certain their events are included in the Diary. The Events Diary is not meant
to " advertise" any event and each organisation should make its own arrangement to advertise its organised event, and the accc can not be held responsible for
any lack of attendance at any event due to the possible omission of the event from the Events Diary. The accc will endeavour to include in the Diary all events notified to
the webeditor, but can not guarantee that all events organised in the U.K. whether notified or not, will be listed in the Diary We will be pleased to include in this
section any event by any Armenian organisation in the UK which informs us of their activities and dates. We strongly urge all organisations to make use
of this facility and to publish their functions on this page and we also suggest to all to refer to this page when planning a function so as to avoid function overlaps
('khatchatzevoum') on the same day, or planning of similar functions within a reasonable period from another. Please e-mail details to webeditor@accc.org.uk Editorial privilege is reserved and submitted details
may be edited. Information appearing on this page has been obtained from the relevant organisers, and we do not assume responsibility for any errors or inaccuracies
in, or changes to, the published details. It is recommended that interested persons confirm all details of a function with the organisers prior to making
arrangements or
commitments.
