The Invisible among Us

Semegnish Asfaw

“The Invisible among Us" seeks to engage us in the plight and prospects of persons with no nationality, a problem that especially affects women and children. Locally and internationally, churches and church people everywhere can help to lift up their humanity so they can take their rightful place in the human family.” – Archbishop Desmond Tutu

Entrevista con el patriarca etíope Abune Matías

La visita del patriarca de la Iglesia Ortodoxa Tewahedo de Etiopía, S. S. Abune Matías, al Consejo Mundial de Iglesias (CMI) el 9 y 10 de febrero de 2017 motivó la reflexión sobre la singular historia y tradiciones de esa antigua iglesia y sobre su papel en la sociedad etíope y en el panorama ecuménico más amplio. Abune Matías fue elegido en 2013 tras una vida de servicio en la iglesia y sus monasterios y escuelas durante una época especialmente turbulenta. La iglesia cuenta con unos cincuenta millones de miembros, incluyendo a varios millones fuera de Etiopía, país donde representa aproximadamente a la mitad de la población. A continuación, les presentamos una breve entrevista con el patriarca.
