THOUGHTS & WRITINGS OF

HIS GRACE BISHOP MESROP PARSAMYAN

June 15, 2025

HAPPY FATHERS’ DAY

When I graduated from the Seminary and was ordained a priest, my father would proudly introduce me every time we met someone new. He would say, “Do you know my son, Hayr Mesrop? He graduated from the Gevorgyan Seminary with honors. He’s a priest now, ordained at Holy Etchmiadzin.” His heart was full. He was proud. Proud not just because of the achievement, but because I was his son.

Friends, that’s exactly how your Heavenly Father feels about you. He’s smiling over you. He’s talking about you in Heaven. Not because you’re perfect, but because you’re His.

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.

DEATH OF RAOUL ASLAN

Raoul Aslan was one of the most popular Austrian actors in the 1920-1950 period.

He was born Raoul Aslanian on October 16, 1886, in Salonica (Thessaloniki), then part of the Ottoman Empire (now in Greece). His father Charles Aslanian was a tobacco salesman from Edirne (Adrianopolis) of Armenian origin, and his mother came from an Italian family that had moved to Egypt. His younger brother was the actor Didier Aslan (1894-1978).

Aslan’s mother tongue was French, as was customary among the upper middle classes of the Ottoman Empire at the time. He was brought up by a Viennese governess and moved to Vienna with his mother in 1896 to attend school.
