Feast of the Holy Evangelists Matthew, Mark, Luke and John  

The word evangelist derives from the Greek for “proclaimer of the gospel” and in widest usage refers to preachers and missionaries. Specifically, the Four Evangelists, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John are the named authors of the four Gospels, the first four books of the New Testament canon which each recount, with somewhat different details, the life of Christ. Matthew and John were named among the original twelve apostles; Mark and Luke were apparently companions of Saint Paul. The evangelists are depicted throughout medieval art in several ways. They are often shown as authors, holding or writing in books or on scrolls, and as such, frequently appear in manuscripts as prefatory illustrations before their Gospels. The Four Evangelists are regularly accompanied by symbolic animals which derive from passages in Ezekiel (1:5-14; his vision of four beasts); and the Apocalypse (4:6-8; the vision of the beasts around the throne of God).

The Parish Council, Fr. Mesrob and Picnic Co-Chairs Arek Ohanissian and Elizabeth Vranka would like to express their heartfelt appreciation to the volunteers who worked to make our 2022 church picnic a success. Thank you to all the volunteers who tirelessly prepared for the picnic and to all who worked over the weekend to bring back this cherished community event.
