Turning Points
Life is full of turning points and so are our Holy Scriptures. There are always points in life where you might have gone one
way or the other, and in choosing, things were never the same again. Or, as is often the case, we don’t choose events–
sometimes events chose us.
Alfred Nobel had one such turning point. His brother Ludwig had died, but a reporter thought it was Alfred who died and
wrote an obituary about Alfred instead of his brother. Imagine Alfred’s surprise when he woke up the next morning and read
his own obituary. When he was finished reading, he was even more shocked. The obituary was titled ‘The merchant of death
is dead.’ Nobel had invented dynamite, but he saw all its great potential for construction; such as blasting holes for solid bridge
footings and blasting rock to connect people with roads and tunnels. His invention, however, was also being used for war and
destruction. And by the pen of this obituary writer, Alfred Nobel’s legacy was as the inventor of a weapon of mass
destruction. Shocked by this portrayal, Alfred Nobel turned his life efforts to creating the Nobel Peace Prize, awarded to
those who dedicate their lives to peace. Reading his own obituary was Nobel's turning point.
We have many such dramatic turning points in our Holy Scriptures. During Lent we read of the dramatic individual turn-
around of the Prodigal Son. We also read of great turn-arounds by entire communities, like in the dramatic turn-around of
God’s people embodied in the words and life of the prophet Isaiah. "The spirit of the Lord God is upon me,” proclaims
Isaiah, “because the Lord has anointed me; he has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed; to bind up the
brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor, and
the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn (Is 61.1-2).” Please understand the history here. Isaiah is
speaking to a Hebrew people decimated by genocide, scattered in foreign lands and fighting amongst themselves about who
was ethnically and religiously pure. Isaiah is casting a vision, reminding the people of Israel that good is ahead and God’s love
is boundless if they put God first and seize this turning point.
We are all given turning points as individuals and as a community, sometimes these are dramatic, but often they are only
noticeable in hindsight. I think that we at St. Hagop might discern a turning point in the challenge our new Primate gave us in
his first visit to us this winter. Echoing the challenge of the prophet Isaiah, in so many words, Fr. Daniel reminded us over
and again that; ‘it is time for the church to be the church.’ It is time to put aside the distractions, the diversions, all we do to
entertain, educate and edify and instead put first things first. Araj Asdvadz, in doing this we might end up not only entertaining,
educating and edifying, but by God’s grace transforming people’s very lives.
Our Primate did not leave us with many details of how the church is to be a church, to do what only we can do. But during
this Lenten season of self-reflection, with the help of Isaiah and leaning on our own experience, perhaps we can fill in some
details on how the church be the church. The whole world is looking for fulfillment and purpose in their lives to be a part of
something bigger. But the church, and only the church, is the place where the Spirit of the Lord chooses to dwell in and
among his people gathered, receiving the grace of God which fills all voids and fulfills all lives. The whole world is suffering
from slavery to anxieties, addictions, sins and shames. The church and only the church says that we are a hospitable for souls,
with the medicine of the Holy Scriptures and prayer, and the power of our presence to each other which “binds the
brokenhearted, frees the captive and releases prisoners.” The whole world wants to be special and loved in the eyes of God
and in the eyes of others. The church and only the church reaches out to its members who are isolated and shut-in-because of
age or poverty or sickness-and proclaims God’s special favor on the lonely and afflicted.
Today let us recognize that a great challenge has been given to us at St. Hagop, a great turning point to bring about Christ’s
presence in the world by being his church. How will we, in the years ahead, fulfill our great opportunity, our vocation, to be
Christ’s healing, reconciling body to each other and to those whom God has brought us to serve? How can each of us as
members of St. Hagop Armenian Church, help realize a turning point where our church can truly be the church? As we
ponder these questions, let us carry in our hearts the prophet’s words; the Spirit of the Lord is here even now among our
people and we have been anointed, in Christ, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor and to set all captives free; now and
always; amen.
PARISH COUNCIL REPORT by Louise Yardumian
The Way to Serve
The Holy Season of Lent is an opportunity as well as a challenge. It’s a time to reflect on the challenges of being a Christian and recommitting ourselves to our faith. People observe Lent in many ways. Some abstain from foods or watching television. But as we know, Lent is not just abstaining from something; it is also a time to choose how you will serve God. First and foremost, we are a community of worshippers. The consequence of that is service, which is inspired by our love of Christ and followers of his commandments. As we read in the Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 22:37, “Jesus said, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. And a second is like it, You shall love thy neighbor as thyself.’ ” Give great consideration to the following St. Hagop Ministries, so we together, can serve as instruments of Christ here on earth:
Welcome people as they come in to church through the Greeter Ministry
Sing the glorious hymns of our liturgy while singing in the Choir
Chant eloquent prayers as an Altar Server
Teach Sunday School to our priceless children
Visit the sick and shut-in or take part in several humanitarian causes in Outreach
Be a member of the talented, devoted ladies of the Women’s Guild
Serve on the Parish Council, Events Committee, Auditing Committee, Nominating Committee, or the Stewardship Committee
Enjoy the many varied activities of the Junior/Senior ACYOA’s
Beautify the inside of the church, through the Altar and Flower Guilds
Beautify the buildings and outdoor space with Maintenance/Facilities Enhancement And of course, come to worship as often as possible. Feel God’s love in your life. Then go out into the world and share His love with others. Along with Der Hovnan, my co-chair, Mallory Maslar, and all of our Parish Council members, we are committed to lead this parish along the road of Christian love. Very special thanks go to Dr. Michael Shahnasarian, past chairman of the Parish Council, who served with great insight, expertise, and generosity. Special appreciation to both Michael and Jean for the love they share with all of us. We are extremely grateful. May we learn from their example. Let us all help to do what Jesus said, to “love one another as I have loved you.” May you have a meaningful Lent and a Glorious Easter. Louise M. Yardumian Parish Council Chair

OUTREACH MINISTRY UPDATE by Grace Austin
The outreach ministry continues to visit the extended St Hagop family, once a quarter. With each visit, we bring a new
group of parishioners to bring the joy of the church to those members that cannot attend Badarak. We lift our hearts,
voices, and the spirits of all we visit, leaving treats along the way. This quarter, we had the additional blessing of bringing
some of the altar flowers to Marie Amoudjanian. We hope that our partnership with the new Flower Guild will provide
this opportunity again.
The outreach ministry, while not new, is one that is very important. The visits extend the reach of St Hagop beyond the
four walls of our beloved church to the edges of our community. Our new Parish Chairwoman Louise has challenged us
to stretch that reach even further. You can expect more dates on the calendar to do this important work. The blessing
though, is that it doesn’t require much to gather a group of parishioners to visit our community. The heart of the church
is so evident when we mention we are visiting on a Sunday.
Each time we visit, I ask what the visits meant to those that were in attendance. Last year, I had the opportunity to visit
Sofia, Bulgaria, which brought me closer to my already close friend Eileen Barsamian Jennings. On this visit, there were
several special connections to Sofia, which created a new closeness with people I see every Sunday, but didn’t know well.
From a face we know from the altar, Shagen Babayan, he was especially moved by getting generations together to share
and connect. “The interaction between the different generation of Armenians within our community allowed for
emotional, spiritual support cultivated by our appreciation and respect for their respective lifelong contributions” he said.
And finally, Rosanna Kyarunts, a gentle lady with a busy job, school and life found that by taking an hour or two after
church brought such joy to someone that may not have many visitors. “There is much for the youth to learn from our
older generations” She said.
It is with gratitude that we look ahead to our summer visits. We are grateful for all that have come with us, and look
forward to sharing the love in our hearts with those in our community. If you are interested in visiting, writing cards,
making calls and the other important work that the ministry conducts please find me at church. We are always seeking
new and good ideas.
GREETER MINISTRY UPDATE by Rita Keshishian
Join Our Greeters Ministry!
To warmly welcome our parishioners as they arrive to celebrate
Badarak at St. Hagop is a rewarding and fulfilling privilege. Both
members of the parish council and congregation serve as greeters
prior to, during, and after Sunday mass. Duties include readying
the church for worship services, welcoming and orienting church
attendees, counting attendees, and participating in the liturgy by
receiving and spreading the kiss of peace, assisting parishioners
who partake in Holy Communion, and distributing the collection
plate. Parish council members count, document and prepare for
deposit collection receipts and other contributions.
Please consider this opportunity to meaningfully participate in
this fulfilling ministry and actively be an important part of the St.
Hagop family.

WOMEN’S GUILD UPDATE by Teresa Haidarian
Lots of things to report since the last newsletter. We’ve changed
officers in the women’s guild. Lena stepped down from chair of
the guild, we have a new 2nd chair, recording secretary and
corresponding secretary. Treasurer remains the same. Our newly
elected officers for the year are
Chair Debra Kamajian
Vice-chair, Karen Minassian
Treasurer Lana Arutyunyan
Recording Secretary, Teresa Haidarian
Corresponding Secretary Nadia Anac Rodriguez
Lena Kotchounian has served as chair of Women’s Guild for
four continuous years and has decided to take a short break from
a leadership position. We are so grateful for the tremendous job
she did and recognize the hard work she put in over those four
years. Just saying thank you does not seem like enough for all the
hours she had put into making the women’s guild the hardest
working service organization in our church. I will post the tribute
that was sent out in a recent e-blast which summarizes how we
all felt about how much she gave to our congregation.

VALENTINE’S DAY PARTY RECAP FROM FEBRUARY 16TH! by Stepan Serpekian
What a Valentine’s Dinner dance fundraiser. My sincere gratitude to our 155 guests who were able to support our
passion in having a great time with wonderful delicacies and superior company. Of course, as you all know, any
successful event takes a team, behind the scenes, dedicated to giving their utmost to have the common goal achieved.
Our passion was to have a fun time at a reasonable price and raise some funds for the operational expenses of the
Church. To achieve that goal we needed a list of volunteers, a list of vendors and a list of donors. Our volunteers started
with the food by the Women’s Guild of St Hagop Armenian church under the leadership of Lena Kotchounian, assisted
by Hasmig Demerjian, Araxi Dulgeroff, Rita Keshishian, Annie Kouyoumdjian, Mirella Ovanesian and Maro Shaldjian.
Our welcoming team on the dance night Jean Shahnasarian, Janet Davidian, Lizette Nalbandian and Seta Serpekian. Our
volunteers who set up the tables and solicited raffle prizes specially Debra Kamajian. Our vendors starting with Natella
Mouradian from Bella- Natella Decorating and event designs for decorating the Shahnasarian Hall and the tables. Music
was managed by our own DJ Hagz, Hagop Sayegh who kept the guests on their feet dancing the night away with the
beautiful lighting effects. The Spunky Spirits were in charge of the bar services with Lena their dedicated and joyful
bartender. The Reliable Maid Service with Teresa and Terry did a great job serving the food and cleaning afterwards. All
the volunteers who helped clear tables at the end of the night. Many thanks to Chrisanne Jensen for keeping the
reservations under control. Also, thanks to Bobby Maslar for keeping an eye on our needs at the Shahnasarian Hall.
Our Donors, who make the difference in any event, starting with Mr. and Mrs. Michael Shahnasarian for the wine
selection, my family for the hard spirits that were needed, Mr. and Mrs. Kazarian for sponsoring three tables. Mr. and
Mrs. Greg Ekizian for their cash donation. I can’t forget to thank Jack Dikranian for putting together the beautiful flyer
and printing the Delta raffle tickets. Our memory reminder Ara Keshishian with his beautiful pictures and video.
My sincere gratitude to Mr. Xay Salavong and Mrs. Rubina Shaldjian for donating the five $100.00 Delta Airlines gift
cards. We were able to sell all 150 tickets that we had printed, mind you last minute, raising $1,500.00 for the event.
Thanks to all the supporters who purchased the special raffle tickets. Overall, we had a very successful fundraising event
and would like emphasis the so true quote from William Saroyan:
“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all
been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more
answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia. See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their
homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the
world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.”
How true...until the next event.
With gratitude,
Stepan H Serpekian

SHANASARIAN HALL REPORT by Chrisanne Jensen/Event Coordinator
We are already having a record breaking year for special events at our beautiful hall. Both clients and parishioners are
giving us rave reviews about the hall’s features and amenities. We made many improvements this year such as a
permanent pavilion curtain to add privacy to outdoor use, a tri-folding mirror in the back “bridal” room, and a new
cleaning company to keep our floors buffed and polished.
There are many events planned by our Events Committee for this upcoming year so please check our bulletins and
Avedis to plan ahead to join us! Shahnasarian Hall is a wonderful place to socialize after each week’s Divine Liturgy
and our Women’s Guild group does a great job welcoming everyone.
We have much to look forward to this upcoming year and dates are booking up quickly so if you know of any looking
for an amazing event center for any type of event, send them to me! Special discounts are available for parishioners
who need a banquet hall for upcoming events so contact Chrisanne at 727-545-0380 for more information.
