Contributed by: Wendy Grove on 4/16/2008

Father Vazken Movsesian, a priest of the Armenian Orthodox Church and executive director of In His Shoes Ministries, will give a presentation on the topic of genocide at Glendale Community College at noon Tuesday, April 22, in Kreider Hall.

Movsesian visited Rwanda in 2006 to meet with survivors of the country's 1994 genocide. He uses his experiences to draw connections between the current events in the Darfur region of Sudan with Rwanda and the Armenian genocide.

Movsesian serves the community at the St. Peter Armenian Church Youth Ministries' Center in Glendale.

The In His Shoes Ministries is a group devoted to walking "in the shoes" of the oppressed and suffering throughout the world.

The presentation is sponsored by GCC's Associated Students and Service Learning Center.

Admission is free and open to the public.

Additional information may be obtained by calling 818-240-1000.

The college is located at 1500 N. Verdugo Road.
