Dear All,

Our Eparchy has lost within one month, two of its exemplar priests, Abba Teum Tesfay and Abba Woldegabriel Kahsay, who have remained faithful to their call of priestly service and commitment until their last moments of this earthly life.
We will remember Abba Woldegabriel for his love of the Church and for his dedication as educator, chaplain and confessor. May Our Lord whom he served with great love receive his soul and grant him eternal rest.
