Panikhida For Descendants of Gallipoli Emigres

From the Synod website: 

"This year marks an anniversary for the descendants of the Russian emigres in Gallipoli. It is now 95 years since the founding of the Society of Gallipoli. Lieutenant-General Baron Wrangel established the Society on November 22, 1921, exactly a year after the arrival of the first troops of the Russian Army to Gallipoli.

In memory of this occasion, the Main Administration of the Union of the Descendants of the Russians of Gallipoli decided that every year, on the closest Saturday to November 22, to perform pannikhida services wherever the descendants of those members of the White Army live.
