There is a monastery in the northern part of Ethiopia named after Saint Abba Samuel, who was a monk in the 15th century. This Monastery, Hamere Birhan St. Abba Samuel Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo is named after him to commemorate and receive blessing. Additionally, this name change was suggested by the bishop of our region Abune Fanuel. Formerly, it was registered as, “Hamere Berhan Bisrate Gebreal Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo (EOT) Monastery.”
Mission and Goals
The mission of Hamere Birhan St. Abba Samuel EOT Monastery is to serve Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Christians, mainly to cultivate the next generation in order to inherit the church. The establishment of this monastery is to expand Abinnet School which teaches liturgy, poetry, hymns, and other bible studies. Abinnet School is designed to help the congregations, especially Tewahedo children and youth, to grow spiritually and strengthen their faith, ultimately, creating a generation that will keep the religion, its identity and inherit the church.

It comprises of 50,000± square feet of building space in a campus style setting and is situated on 116± acres of land located in Zuni, Virginia (5351 Presbyterian Drive, Zuni, VA 23898).
