Ethiopia Calling

From 2 December 2008 to 13 February 2009 Gallery 1055 will host an exhibit of photographs documenting our encounter with the Ethiopian Church, one of the most ancient forms of Christianity.

On our visit during Timkat, the Feast of the Epiphany, we met ordinary believers, monks, priests and the Patriarch Abune Paulos. We read icons and prayed in the holy churches of Lalibela, St. George’s Cathedral in Addis Ababa, Debre Berhan in Gondar, St. Mary’s in Axum and in the monasteries of Lake Tana. We looked for what we share in common as Christians widely separated by our culture and daily life.
