Following the political change in Ethiopia, extremists have been targeting the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church. Across the country they have slaughtered priests, burned Churches and religious sites, and displaced thousands of Orthodox Christians. Some good Muslim brother and sisters have also been victims of these heinous crimes. In less than 2 weeks we were able to raise more than 200,000 dollars. the goal is to keep this blessing of giving until the day of Medhanialem, Saturday December 7th 2019. Even though many Churches have burned down especially in East Harerge, for now we are focusing on rebuilding three of the Churches that need immediate attention.
Here are list of places that were in danger just a month ago…

East and West Harerge current events…
By using the incident in Weldiya University as their leverage (advantage), extremists are again attacking Orthodox citizens and their Churches.
As of now, while reporting this event we know two Churches have been burned down. A killing spree on Orthodox citizens is escalating in various rural places and villages.
Especially in East Hararge, citizen’s lives are threatened and are passing each hour in fear due to the great threat of an attack anytime. As the attacks on Orthodox citizens and Churches are increasing and escalating as days and months pass, Action needs to be taken by the government before citizens completely loose hope on the rule of law; or if whether justice will be served soon.
Here are the list of places attacks already occurred, and places highly threatened for future violence
