After a long productive life as a priest of Christ, our dear Abba Tesfazghi Uqubit passed away from this temporary life to eternal life. As St. Paul states " I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing." 2 Tom.4:7-8. May the Good Lord award the crow awaiting him to our Abba Tesfaghi Uqubit. Rest in PEACE Abba Tesfazghi. read more
