The 102nd AHEPA Supreme Convention opened for the first time in Cyprus in a show of solidarity to mark the 50th dark anniversary of Turkey’s invasion of Cyprus.

NEW YORK--Thought to have been lost, a powerful film that brought awareness to the American public of the plight of the Cypriot refugees following the 1974 invasion of their home has resurfaced. The film\'s reemergence is credited to the relentless determination of Professor Fevronia Soumakis and Bishop Spyridon of Amastris (née Fr. Spencer Kezios).

We came to our National Shrine today, to pray and to worship, and to ordain a young monastic; but we also came here – in this place where injustice and tragedy have forever marked the land – to remember the dark day when our precious Cyprus was invaded by the forces of division and destruction. On this Fiftieth Black Anniversary, when we desire – more than ever – a just, equitable, and peaceful reunification of this Island Nation, we also stand in prayer and supplication for the souls of all those who were lost, and we offer this Memorial.
