DISASTERS

 

"WHEN A MAN FALLS, HE SHALL RISE AGAIN"

Although the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church first began when St Phillip baptised the Ethiopian Eunich, the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church in the Western Hemisphere and Southern Africa is actually an outgrowth of the Ethiopian World Federation. The jurisdiction of the Archdiocese of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church in the Western Hemisphere and Southern Africa covers the following geographic areas:

1. North America
2. South America
3. Central America
4. Caribbean
5. South Pacific
6. Southern Africa

While the jurisdiction of the Archdiocese of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church in the Western Hemisphere and Southern Africa are great, so are the challenges that she faces. In the face of this, the Archdiocese will overcome all of these obstacles, because Christ was victorious through His Crucifixion and glorious resurrection. We shall rise! The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church has arrived on the shores of the Western Hemisphere and Southern Africa, not to save the righteous but to save the outcasts. We shall rise!

1. A request was made.
2. A promise was made.
3. A promise was kept.

The Archdiocese of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church in the Western Hemisphere and Southern Africa is presently under the authority of His Eminence Abune Yesehaq. The prophecy has been fulfilled-"Princes shall come out of Egypt, Ethiopia shall stretch forth hers hands unto God." We shall rise!
