SUMMARY:The Great Fire of Smyrna: The Final Chapter of the Genocide of Greeks in Asia Minor
DESCRIPTION:The Great Fire of Smyrna:\nThe Final Chapter of the Genocide of Greeks in Asia Minor\nSunday\, September 18\, 2022 | 1:00pm\nOnline and On-Site at the Illinois Holocaust Museum & Education Center\n\nFor thousands of years\, Smyrna was the wealthiest of cities\, located today on Turkey’s Aegean coast. An elegant cosmopolitan city where Greeks\, Armenians\, Turks\, Jews and others lived and worked together\, Smyrna was a city known for religious tolerance.  \nBut after the “Young Turks Revolution” and creation of a Nationalist government in 1919\, a lethal campaign calling for the destruction and brutal persecution of the Christians of Asia Minor\, Pontos\, and East Thrace began.  \nThe Great Fire of Smyrna started on September 13\, 1922\, after the Turkish armed forces entered Smyrna\, a deliberate act by the Turkish government to destroy or expel Greeks and any other Christian population. The entire Greek and Armenian quarters of the city were destroyed\, forcing the population to flee. Historians believe the number of victims was in the tens of thousands\, while the number of refugees was over a million. Thousands of Greek and Armenian men were deported into the interior of Anatolia\, where many died in brutal conditions. After the Smyrna Catastrophe\, the Hellenic city\, founded over 3\,000 years before\, a jewel of the Eastern Mediterranean\, ceased to have a Hellenic community.  \nJoin Illinois Holocaust Museum and the Asia Minor and Pontos Hellenic Research Center for an afternoon of discussion and presentations by renowned scholars and educators as they address one of the most tragic and major events in modern Greek history.  \n\n\n\nHear from scholarly speakers as they discuss the importance of this great catastrophe to the Greek population and how these events remain relevant today.\n\n—\n\nRegistration required. Free to the public.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n—\nSee the Full Event Flyer\n—\n\n\nPRESENTERS\n\nGeorge Shirinian\, Author and Executive Director\, Zoryan Institute\n\nDr. Constantine Hatzidimitriou\, Adjunct Assistant Professor at St. Johns’ University and City University of New York\,\n\nDr. Paul Bartrop\, Emeritus Professor\, Florida Gulf Coast University\n\nKelley Szany\, Senior Vice President of Education and Exhibitions\, Illinois Holocaust Museum and Co-Chair\, Illinois Holocaust & Genocide Commission\n\n\n—\n\n\nPROGRAM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH\n\nGreek Orthodox Metropolis of Chicago – His Eminence Metropolitan Nathanael\nThe UCLA SNF Hellenic Center – Sharon Gerstel\, Director\nThe National Hellenic Museum – Marianne Kountouris\, Executive Director\nCenter for Hellenic Studies\, University of Chicago\nAristotle University of Thessaloniki – Pontic Studies\nHellenic American Leadership Council\nArmenian National Committee of Illinois\nAssyrian American Civil Club of Chicago\nENOSIS – The Federation of Hellenic American Organization of Illinois\nHellenix American Women’s Council\nHellenic Link Midwest\nThe Pan-Pontian Federation of USA and Canada\nPontian Greek Society of Chicago\nPontian Youth Association of USA and Canada

SUMMARY:TEAM Belong - That Every Ability May Belong
DESCRIPTION:TEAM Belong (That Every Ability May Belong; formerly known as Inclusion Awareness Day)\, is a ministry designed to create a sense of belonging among Orthodox Christians with disabilities\, as well their families\, in their parishes. Inspired by Romans 15:7\, “Therefore\, welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you\, for the glory of God”\, TEAM Belong’s efforts culminate every year in October when parishes designate and celebrate one Sunday of the month as Inclusion Awareness Day. By observing this day\, the ministry hopes to further educate parishioners about the needs of people with physical\, intellectual\, emotional and sensory disabilities in our midst\, as well as to recognize the tremendous value they add to our community.

SUMMARY:TEAM Belong - That Every Ability May Belong
DESCRIPTION:TEAM Belong (That Every Ability May Belong; formerly known as Inclusion Awareness Day)\, is a ministry designed to create a sense of belonging among Orthodox Christians with disabilities\, as well their families\, in their parishes. Inspired by Romans 15:7\, “Therefore\, welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you\, for the glory of God”\, TEAM Belong’s efforts culminate every year in October when parishes designate and celebrate one Sunday of the month as Inclusion Awareness Day. By observing this day\, the ministry hopes to further educate parishioners about the needs of people with physical\, intellectual\, emotional and sensory disabilities in our midst\, as well as to recognize the tremendous value they add to our community.
