BOLD AND PATIENT

Did you know that the lions in front of the New York City Public Library have names? That’s right. Their names are Patience and Fortitude. During the Great Depression, Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia gave them those names to remind New Yorkers of the qualities they needed to get through tough times.

In the middle of a city that never sleeps, where millions rush by every day, those two lions have stood tall for over a century. Rain, snow, protests, parades, pandemics—you name it, they’ve faced it. And still they stand, strong and majestic, right where they’ve always been.

FROM PALM SUNDAY THROUGH EASTER, ST. JOHN KEPT A FULL SCHEDULE

Palm Sunday is the celebratory bridge between two periods of profound reflection on the Armenian Church calendar, Lent and Holy Week. On Palm Sunday, the sanctuary curtain was opened, the gospel reading commemorated Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem, Holy Communion was offered for the first time in 40 days and the Opening of the Doors ceremony was performed.
