A Church Rooted in
Ancient Faith & Tradition

The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church is one of the oldest Christian churches in the world, tracing its roots to the 4th century when Christianity was brought to Ethiopia. Our faith is expressed through rich liturgical traditions, sacred music, fasting, prayer, and the sacraments.

We welcome all who seek to worship God through the ancient Tewahedo tradition. Whether you are a lifelong member or visiting for the first time, our doors are open to you.
