Good Job Virginia kidane mehiret members. You guys showed an extraordinary achievement against the weyane mafia groups supported by Aba Gebermedihin( tagay G/medhin). I wish other churches around Washington, dc and other states cleansed them selves from weyane supporter religious people. Especially, the so called weyane new cadre members who are organized them selves with the name MAHEBERE KIDUSAN are playing a magnificent role for weyane in dividing the orthodox followers through out the world. Since they are financially supported by weyane government they have all things including medias that are surrounded by radio show and website in order to preach the orthodox followers to accept the Patriarch Abune paulos and to silent the public from asking and discussing the major Ethiopian people proplems such as famine, lack of democracy, increase of inflation which comes from bad governance and bad policy of weyane that is organized by highly corrupted officials and members of weyane. In stead they consistently preach the people all the resolution can only comes from God, while God gives us the resolution on our hands to fight weyane and bring all justice and democracy for our people, so that our people can gradually illuminate our complex problems with the help of god.
Again, thanks members of Kidane Mehiret and May god blesses you for all the best job you did. We shall continue to fight our common enemy everywhere by using all means to bring the best for our country.
Lets not wait some resoultion would come from the sky and lets step up to contribute our part.
Together we win!!!
God Bless Ethiopia!!!
I am suprised!. what are you talking about? What you are saying now is absolutely irrelevant to the truth. I personally was there during the incident. The problem was purely money related. Nothing else. It is amazing, after 10 years of unwanted service, the so called “Sebeka Gubaie” still wants to remain in power?. Their reaction was just like EPRDF in 2005 Election. If they were genuine, They should be the first to ask for replacement before they are thrown out by the church head. What is in there for them? Only God knows!. Thrashing and accusing in the face of the public was absolutly unnecessary.
The so called “Sebeka Gubaie” are bunch of theives and most of them are bankrupted and foreclosured. they have no right to hold the Administartor salary. For God’s sake, he served for 14 years. Is this a big deal for any one who served genuinely this long? Come on, we live in US, Where seniority is respected and vacation days are accumulated every year. Companies offer even ticket and hotels for their senior employees.
In Conclusion, we don’t need “Sebeka Gubaie” at all. The money we gave every sunday and other times, is for the service and the service givers. They have absolute right on the church property. ” Metsihafe Negest, Sisow Lekahinat sisow lenedayan Ylal”.
As I know Mahibere kidusan is the victim of Abba paulos who had fordidden them to construct their office in Addis,In addition,he tried many times to destroy Mahibere Kidusan but he became unsuccessful.These are known by many ethiopian Orthodox followers.What we are!EGZIO Meherene Krstos.Hagos Arya,please,please,think,nobody can beleive your comments,but you can add.
I completely agree with the idea of Dinkinesh.Without bishop or Priest,no sebeka Gubae,no believers,no baptism,no Qeddasse.Therefore,we are going in wrong way.Christ says”Betekristainain be ante lay emesertalehu”,This is clear,Christ made priest(Peter) ,the base of His church.Priority should be given to KAHN.One member of Sebeka Gubae can’t conduct Liturgy(Qeddasse)and give baptism,Holy communion,etcccc;
Tazabi, I appologize if you misunderstood me. However,I am talking about the kidnapped MAHEBERE KIDUSAN who is working for aba g/medhin with the command in chief of Zebene and others. Zebene who resides around metro Washington dc, is the key supporter and element of Aba G/medhin that is tirelessly working to divert the attention of many orthodox followers. Zebene has also a big event every Monday in Alexandria, VA. And has had created many ignorant followers to believe him rather than teaching them to believe God. Zebene owns a radio show that launches every Saturday on WUST 1120 AM. He never give a place for those strong orthodox followers who critizies and condemens the weyane government. In stead he keeps telling them that is not his business, but the fact is that if you are a real God’s lover the first thing you should do is that to stand and make sure people are respected regarding of their race, gender and age, since we all are the same on the eye of God. Actually, Most followers of Zebene are immature and emotional that has no sense about human beings except they are assuming they are the best follower and believer of God, since Zebene has consistently inculcated lack of awareness about their real country situation in their mind, rather than teaching them the exact problem of Ethiopia ( which is weyane) along with best solution from bible perspective. As a result, they have never say any thing about the human rights disrespect in Ethiopia including death of civilians by weyane. Zebene is always reads bible while he never tries to associate the words of bible with the current situation of Ethiopia. Zebene has never condemn the weyane government to stop killing in the name of God, while he always tell his followers that is not their business to concern about the human rights disrespect and lack of justice in Ethiopia which comes from the worst governance of weyane.
Mahebere Kidusan is wolf in sheep cloth which is nothing than a sworn cadre of Aba Gebremedhin to solely stand for the honor of the man at the expense of the Tewahedo’s children. It is a group secretively organized by the Aba Paulos with forceful unanimity of his archbishops to grant them a sole activity within the church only accountable to himself. This cult like organization benefits from exclusive financial interest by robbing the youth, which now even tempted the fake patriarch to nationalize its asset. As the saying goes ‘Bandits never quarrel when they pillage only when they portion their spoil,’ and one cannot use that example as a refugee of sanctity from its unpardonable crime ie. their association with Woyanne and Aba Gebremedhin.
Their mission in the Diaspora Churches is one which we have seen it played unsuccessfully in, Los Angeles, Seattle, Denver, Las Vegas, Atlanta and many other cities across the US . BY DESTROYING THE UNITY OF EACH UNSUSPECTING CHURCHES, THEREBY TO ESTABLISH ORTHODOX TEWAHEDO KINGDOM FOR ABA GEBREMEDHIN IF AND WHEN HE ULTIMATELY DEPARTS FROM ETHIOPIA. By using old method of pitting one group with another, by defaming the names of dedicated church members who oppose them, by claiming they are the only legitimate gospel teachers within the church, by soliciting a sworn allegiance only to their evil organization, by collecting (un reported ) tax free funds from their members and finally by attempting to nullify sign of resistance against woyanne’s atrocity. Eg. Bitterly opposing even a special prayer of “Egzio Maherene Kristos” for those victims of the Agazi army.
The sooner we realize this organization which is rotten to the core, as enemy of ETHIOPIA herself, the sooner we will be able to cleanse the diehards out of each congregation and the sooner we can help the unsuspecting youth from joining in the first place. Woyanne used the very tactical infiltration to the Ethiopian Student movement three decade ago as modus operandi to effectively organize Mahebere kidusan to infiltrate the Ethiopian Churches both inside/outside of the country. Ask your friends and relatives back in Ethiopia to measure their power and influence as an effective force of Aba Gebremedhin, of course to no avail. The blood money they are receiving to bribe Hodam so called priest to oppose legitimate hierarchy of the church’s leadership in order to scare others to accept them will ultimately fail. Look no further than those thriving churches in the cities mentioned above who are embraced by thousand of worshipers and adhere to the true Liturgy and Kenona of the Feteha Negest.
The Ethiopian Orthodox church has survived countless trial and tribulation throughout her existence. Today she faces complex challenges that can only be parallel with Yodit Gudit and Geragn Mohammed, thanks in part to such organization as Mahebere Kidusan. However, unlike any other, her council and protector our Lord Jesus Christ will once more will triumph by cleansing these heretic forces into the hip ash of history.
God Save Ethiopia, and her church.
O Dinkinesh you are “STILL BORN”.
We new who you are,you wasent there.Whey you hide your real name? as you say if the problem was many who took that $30,000,00 money? Kes Tadesse or Sebeka gubae?.
Yes you are surprised because your hand is there.
To response Tazabi#3 The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahido Church is the victim of “Mahibere Riqusan” Organization of Nazi.
To response Sew#4 You have to read “the Holy Bible”.
“OUR LORD JUSUS” didnt say prists are Stealing from the church or dishonesty.
Thank you Elias{Ethiopian Reviw}
ms bertu, where you think you leav.i think i had read this articl some where else from the other partner.be your self. you never mentiond what mahebere kidusan did TO KEEP OUR CHERCH from menafican? off course you don not know. and i do not expect any posetive answer from retarded politician.
our people is realaized that, here in diaspora, the ethiopian orthodox cherch kidnaped and hijaked by un beliver blooded hands and crimnals like your self.
by the way who gave to you this wretten? i smell like PASTER DANIEL hand writing. you can not full no body but your self hodam menafic.
Dear Hagose,
And all ortodox christins, I tought this site is for politics only. Why church issue?
Is there any muslim, or other any bleliver who watch his or plitical intrest rather. We know Elias is Pagan or non christian but even your site viewers judge your evil lie on the internet background. Elias we will start watching your damage and still didn’t work much on our church.
Not only that Yethiopia Amlke Yefaredhal.
I wish you use your to teach was to success like morgage, economy, sustainity, self confidence and something like intresting for this generation.
May be something that also make you look good atleast or normal person.
Those how chose sward will die with it.
you are next to get the judgment of God.
Again and again we( Ortodox belivers) told you to stay away!
Here we go again! Why do people attach the name “Mahibere Kidusan” to every thing they hear and read? It is so sad that while those young mahibre kidusan members spend their time, money and effort for the “unity” of our church and most of you just sit and open your poisonous mouth to spread bad words. They don’t even have any spare time like you gues to read these false accusation and comment. And those of you who comment blindly about The Holy synod or Patriarch have no idea of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church rules and regulations. Too bad the current Patriaric has the same orgin as the current government. It is almost 2 decades since he is in power, so what do you guys want? do you want to see the church to remain divided for another God knows how long?. No the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewhahedo church will be under one Holy Synod all over the world. There is no such a thing as “neutral” or Synod in Exile” If you want to know more read out church history. Please don’t quote me wrong, I am not trying to defend any body, I am just telling the truth.
Dear Elias,
Don’t you think religion and politics are two separate things?
And I am just curious who are you against? The Ethiopian Orthodox Church? I never read any thing about protestants and Muslims in your web site. So why don’t you leave the EOTC alone?. After all religion is not your specialty. If any body want to post any thing about church related news let them do it in religious web sites, there are plenty of them I am sure you know. You think you are doing the right thing but you are damaging the reputation of the whole Ethiopian Orthodox Church in the eyes of others.
I heard a lot about the ‘Efugnt’ from NY. He is one of the most trusted hit-men of Aba Gebremedhne (Aba Paulos). From the very beginning he was the ring leader of the ‘Kibat’ faction to divide and distroy the EOTC. As every one knows the ‘Kibat’ and ‘Sega’ factions cause the death of Thousands of EOTC members during the 16th Century (during the reign of Atse Suseneyose). This person is conspiring behind the scene to divide and weaken the EOTC. In doing so, he is currently in charge of the ‘Mahebere Kidusan’ group, which is known by its true name, Mahbere Erkusan. The main task of the Mahbere Erkusa group is to divide the EOTC and create confusion and uncertainty in the church. The reason why they do this is, to suppress the Ethiopian people from protesting against the Fascist regime of Meles Zenawi. Aba Gebremehdne (Aba Paulos) is the right hand man of Meles Zenawi. The Efugnt from NY was originally based in Bir Sheleko area of Ethiopia and later he was based in Zeway. The Efugnt from NY is working day and night to bring back the massacre of Christians like his predecessor during the time of Atse Suseneyose. This is the reason why he is vehemently opposed peace and reconciliation in the EOTC. I strongly urge priests and the member of the EOTC to know very well the Efugnt from NY and the Mahbere Erkusan group. Aba Gebremedhe by denying salaries of thousands of priests in Ethiopia, he insted pays the Mahber Erkusan group millions of dollars. They tell you a lot of lies. The good thing is this group is now exposed and its members are identified. In the future I will provide readers of ER with up to date list of memebers and more info about the Mahbere Erkusan group activities in Ethiopia and through out the world.
All we are responsible for the problem of our cHurch because As I read from the holy Bible,(Colossians 4:2&3)Saint Paul says”devote yourselves to prayer,being watchful and thankful.And pray for us…” Do you understand this?Look even saint Paul asks the prayer of his followers(Christians).Are we praying for our Church Fathers who need our prayers more than St.Paul?They are in great problem .When will we pray for them?We can’t solve it posting best explanation and blaming and insulting others.
About Mahibere Kidusan,about its good deeds,even Devil(RIKUSU)can testify.This organization has become obstacle for the anti-church forces(Menafiqan,selfish politicians,illegal priests and bishops,etc)
Now, the issue became Mahibere Kidusan instead of Kidane Mihret Church. Any way I would like to say a few words about it. Most of Mahibere Kidusan Members seem to be naive christian and dont know the whole history of this Synodos thing. Oppose and support only has become their duty. Oppose diaspora support the so called’enat betekirstian’.Enat…who is Enat…
How Synodos under Abune Paulos becomes Enat church. Enat gives bread to her children, enat dies for her children…where is the EOTC Synod when people are suffering.
For the Diaspora Synodos my question will be ‘why under one region…be Ethiopian.
My conclusion will be, Mahibere kidusan please dont affraid to challege Abune Paulos.If you really want to work for the truth, instead of your organisationa advantages, come clean dont oppose the dialogue for the sake oppossing, be forgiving and get forgiveness. Dont talk trash menafikan all the time. Do you know that it is Aune Paulos who introduced ORGAN in Los angeles churh, do you know who began gelelitegha church in USA for the first time it is Abune Matheas and Abune Paulos.
Let us all repent and ask forgiveness from our Lord Jesus Christ who gave His life for this church and become one church under one Shepherd.
We don’t need Sebeka Gubaie at all. They want to exploit every opportunity to make money. That is why they came to church. Don’t try to confuse us. It has nothing to do with “Mahbere Kidusan” or the Patriarch or whatever you tried to politicize it. It is absolutely a question of money. You don’t want to lose your share!. How on earth, you refused to step down after 10 years? aren’t you tired? Don’t you guys need the time for yourself and your family? are you all unemployed? I see, it is the only source of your income and you don’t want to lose it by any means.
Let me tell you one final thing. We, Children of the Church, and genuine beleivers, those of us who live by our pure sweat, don’t want to see your face again. You have no say on our church. Beleive me, you won’t touch our money again. Go and Find other means….. Leave our church alone…..
For Christ sake, Why don’t all churchs in America purge them out these Tallibans. There are no Churchs in america which do not have issues with these Mullas. Yes they are for Aba Gebremedhin no doubt about it. If you have a non profit organization like a church should be govern by a board of trustees elected by the church members. These board members must not get paid by the church and should do their work free. They have the administrative power to run the church buisneses. If you want a priest in the board he should not get a salary or any form of payement for his work.That is the law of the land. This protect the church from corruption and warrant the church a democratically elected adminisrators . So called Mahibre Kidusans want you to have the church board run by the priest with pay. A classic example of conflict of interest. They aggitate these things thru Sunday Schools to bring a radical change.They no good, like i say purge them out!
Who represent the memberes of Mahibere Kidusan to enter into Church administration?As I know their Rule in the Head Office(Addis),as Mahibere ,it can’t intervene in the Church Administration.Their role is preaching Gospel.If a membere who intervenes in the Church administration,he breaks the rule of the Organization which doesn’t send him/her with this kind of mission(he becomes out of touch,or he is out of the main objective.all members don’t accept his activities;Therefore,the others don’t blame the organization because of one of two members who don’t respect its rule(Memeria)
The organization started good initially. It has done marvelous things at home. i give them credit. I was their staunt supporter, but now i do not like what they are doing. what they preach and practice are two opposite thing. They like to get in to the church buisness and create rift between Sunday school and the church administrative body. They harass inocent people under the banner of anti thadeso. They distract and disturb many church events acting like they are the Federal Police of the Orthodox. Their behaviour makes me sick to my stomach. I witnessed it in Forthworth Texas. Like many suggested above keep these groups away from your church. They will robb your peace.
The current members of this organization may not even be aware of the history of this hideous organization, as they were not even born when the organization was first formed.
It all began as opposition group of the late Abuna Tewoflos as “Atekalye Gubaye” for three primary reasons.
1) Abuna Tewoflos began in earnest the ground work for making the church to be economically self sufficient especially from the grips of dictatorial regimes. This Gubaye opposed this plan from the start and in 1975 they used the Arat Kilo Property as falls evidence to bring a drummed charges of corruption against the patriarch which was used by the Derg for the massacre of the Holy Father. Ironically today almost 40 years later these properties are providing the intended benefit to the church proving the Abuna Tewoflos insightful vision
2) In order to forever curb the influence of menafekan and “Atekalye Gubaye”, the patriarch in acted the formation of “Sebeka Gubaye” allowing every member of the parish to participate in the daily activity of the church till this very day.
3) Unlike today’s state of the church “Teneshewa Mekele”, The Holy father was a staunch Ethiopian who vehemently opposed to ethnic preferences in order to serve the body of Christ which ran to the contrary of “Atekalye Gubaye” main goal.
After its successful role in the assassination of the Holy Father, in 1981 the organization had a nerve to submit application to the Holy Synod to freely organize within the Church without any kind of accountibility. The Late Abuna TekleHaimanot sealed its fate by denying its request and later on its ultimate refugee in Zewaye area where it adopted the current infamous name “Mahebere Kidusan”. This coincided with the invasion of Woyane in 1991 who perfectly knew the history of the organization to successfully used it as a readymade tool to infiltrate the Church for its own agenda. From that time forward “Mahebere Kidusan” was allowed to organize for the first time free from the church’s authority in every parish throughout Ethiopia except Tigray region.
In 2001 the division within Woyane’s rank gave a new golden opportunity to “Mahebere Kidusan” when the surviving woyane entity (Melese’s flank) who moved to seek alliance with the other nationalities as its lost a significant Tigray base. In this endeavor Aba Geberemedhene was quickly summoned to give a legal authority to “Mahebere Kidusan” to legalize its activity for the purpose recruiting Woyane’s support as well as purge anyone who remain against woyane in the church throughout Ethiopia. This 36 pages proclamation which was signed by 15 archbishops of Aba GebreMedhin on Ethiopian Calander Nehase 12/11/1994 (EC August 2002) with Synod doc # 187/275/94 gave “Mahebere Kidusan” unprecedented authority to destroy the Ethiopian Orthodox Church from within.
Since that time a high level delegate led by Daniel Kebret have been given limitless financial and diplomatic latitude with double mission to infiltrate the Diaspora Church’s primarily to reject the legitimate patriarch of Abuna Merkorios. If this initial plan fails to campaign for the Diaspora church’s to proclaim neutrality which of course is unheard of in the Orthodox Christian Faith for the last 2000 years. This clever tactic if successful provides the dilemma of an “Orthodox Church without Archbishops” a misnomer as it will create “Wefe Zerash” generation that forever excommunicate itself from its mother church. Anyone who calls for ‘neutrality’ knowingly or otherwise is practicing from the playbook of “Mahebere Kidusan” ultimately Aba Gebgremedhin and Woyanne. One can simply refers the truism of the 700 million strong orthodox family worldwide which phrases, ‘if one cannot recite his/her baptismal and archbishop’s name one cannot call him/herself an Orthodox Christian”. (But this should be left for a later date for broader discussion.)
Seeing and calling for what it is, there is a contract on Ethiopia and the Orthodox Tewahedo Church as this priceless institution which defines the country we know staggers to behold. As Abuna Gorgorios once defined it, ‘the church that gave Ethiopia its faith, its language with fidel, its existence with freedom ……. ’ therefore, to all of us the church and the country is the two faces of the same coin. For anyone to argue with the Editor of ER to restrain from exposing the sinister contract to destroy the church (and their by dismembering the nation of Ethiopia) is simply asking all of us to standby within the bound of artificial boundary and surrender everything that define us.
My heart goes out to those young members of “Mahebere Kidusan” who unknowingly are complicit with the most evil alien ever to occupy our nation. Christ the Lord has given all of us the passage of repentance to join the everlasting mercy of his kingdom, and we shall pray for that day to come upon them. Today however, I am more concerned with millions of faithful of the church and the people of Ethiopia to make sure the agent of nation-killers are not left without measure.
Long Live Ethiopia and her Church
I don’t think most of us have read the 52 pages secret plan of zenawi and his bandas – to systematically destroy, weaken and eliminate all organizations that have semblence of projecting the ethiopian identity, be it political social, religious even families, and in particular to make the youth useless but sending thousands from tigraye to attend the best educational insitution here in the states free.
Thanks to almighty God! Finally the true color of Mahbere Kiduan came in to light. Elias Can you move up to the top this article. It is become a good learning resource about our beloved EOTC and ethiopia. I would like to throw my appriecation to Elias for updating on the current crisis of our church country.
In the name of Father.the Son & holy spirit, one GOD Amen. Strongly again “MAHIBERE RIQUSAN” harass the church& the people, they are the killer of Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahido Church.They distroyed the church morthan aba paulos. now it is time to save the Mother Land the Church & the people, Fight against “Mahibere Riqusan Organazation of Nazi”
GOD BLESS ETHIOPIA.
Who are you insult believers and guardians of the Church?Insulting is the work of Devil.Like this even Christ was insulted by Jewish who called Him Ganinam(ganin alebet),Kidusun amlak ende Rikus miraqachewun teftewubetal,etc.Why are we insulted by like you?Someone who insults others like Jewish who killed Christ.Can you judge Kidus or rikus?Christ says (Mathew 15:19&20″For out of the heart come evil thoughts,murder,adultery,sexual immorality,theft,false testimony,slander.These are what make a man unclean(Rikus)…”.For me as a membere,I am very happy when you call me Rikus.I know that I am unclean(Rikus)Therefore,who is free from evil thoughts,or false,etc.No one.All we are unclean(RIKUSAN) nen.Teqeblnewum alteqebelnewum,according to the word of GOd,we are unclean.Members of this Organization didn’t and don’t say that we are Qidusan.The meaning of the name is that we respect and ask intecession of all saints in the contrary of Menafiqan.The history which is narrated by Bertu above is another history which is contadict to the true history of Mahibere Kidusan.
Who has saved the Ethiopian Orthodox Children in different colleges and universities from menafiqan?MAHIBERE KIDUSAN Realy,including me,many students are being saved from Menafiqan and other evil things through this mahibere.It is today my identity.If I weren’t get it in that college,I would have been menafiq or adultery or anti this church.Today,60-70 thousands students are being learnrd EOTC education by this Organization.now I have reached one conclusion,all persons who stand against this mahibere are whether they don’t know this mahibere or they are anti-EOTC.
Please pray first before judge on others.Be clean first,then you can clean the others.
To Mr. Taye on #16.
Who said the law of land forbid the prist not to be a board member. Do you know for sure how the other religious institutions function in the USA, like the catholic protestant and the orthodox, or there is an exceptionl rule for an EOTC.
Please be advised and get the right information.
If your concern is accountability talk about it and amend your Bylaws, dont destroy our church in the name of …
Now the subject is changed from Hamere Noah to Mahbere Kidusan. It is just a confusion. Please Guys don’t try to politicize everything. The so called Hamere-Noah “Sebeka Gubaie”s, wanted an upper hand over the church. That is the real cause of the fight. They are not willing to step dowm afer 10 years or more. if you saw their reaction, when the Head Priest (Mmeire Tadesse) started to announce the new appointees, It was just like “Meles” in the 2005 election.
No wonder, It was a cash-cow for them. They don’t want to lose it. That is why they went mad and couldn’t even control their anger. Shame on them!!. I can personaaly witness their embarassing emotion.
As Dinkinesh stated, we don’t need them at all!. If the law requires that the church should be administered with external body, we have every right to elect and replace these greedy groups. Please Go away from our church. don’t show us your face again.!!!!
Bertu: Thank you so much for your accurate presentation how and why Mahebire Kedusan group came to exsistance. Although I do not have a copy, I have heared the exsistance of the proclamation here in US. Please post more detailed facts (including the proclamation itself if you have it) as a stand alone article that will help everyone understand whose interest these people serve.
Good job and thank you.
Anyone and Everyone, here is your chance to rescue a church that is held hostage by Mahibere Kidusan and Abba Geberemedhin. A general meeting held by the Board with no quorum, turned into an open discussion and this group came out and told who they were what they were about with pride and insulted everyone as menafqan, mehyem, knowldge lacking, etc. etc. and etc. people are angry. If there were no police for security there probably wouuld have been a big fight.
Hagos, Goitom, Bertu and everyone else that has tangible information (written materials, audio, vieo, etc) about this group please put it on the web with a link or an attachement from where it could be downloaded. This group has sneaked in and has taken over the Dallas St. Michael Church in Texas and they are flexing their muscle to push the original people that had established the Church. They have taken over the Clergy, mezemran, sundayschool, and have the usual church angry people that had been there from the beginning and would like to cause confusion and distraction to support them to further their cause. These Church is probably one of the biggest if not the biggest Orthodox Churches in the US. Our friends from this church have asked us to support them and we felt putting this information to all Ethiopian Christians anywhere in the world that could help in anyway so that our friends could educate themselves and purge this toxic waste out of their Church before their Church and their money is stolen.
Bertu,
This information is incredible, please try your best to get a copy and if possible the 52 pages as well.
“This 36 pages proclamation which was signed by 15 archbishops of Aba GebreMedhin on Ethiopian Calander Nehase 12/11/1994 (EC August 2002) with Synod doc # 187/275/94 gave “Mahebere Kidusan” unprecedented authority to destroy the Ethiopian Orthodox Church from within.”
I have heard about what is going on in Dallas; true it is one of the biggest Churches in the US. It has about 500 members, but every Sunday there were between 1000-1500 people worshiping at this Church at one time. But most of the educated members of this Church including me saw what Mahibere Kidusan was doing and warned the Board, but we became a target for Mahibere Saitan. We were outright insulted by their attack dogs who were led by two of the ugliest women in the whole Church which we will name in the future for everyone to know incase they flee to your Churches.
If any of you out there have heard the interview conducted in 2006 by Negat Radio with representatives of the Las Vegas St. Michael Orthodox Church, the Rochester’s St. Mary and the Buffalo Church, what happened to them is happening to this Church now. There are several reasons for something terrible as this to happen to other churches 2 years after 3 Churches purged this blood suckers out. Please understand my frustration, I left the Church simply because I did not want to confront someone or hit someone and go to jail when they bluntly call me ugly names such as menafiq, ahzab, emnet yelelat, etc. At the time a few of us reported to the Board which was fruitless because more than half of the Board were Mahibere Kidusan.
1. Those of us that have been bitten once and managed to purge this people out, we need to put complete information out about these people to every Orthodox Church including theirs so that they know we know that their tricks don’t work anymore. Information is power.
2. Every Church in the Diaspora need to open their eyes and check who is entering their doors, all of the ones that entered St. Michael in 2006 were rejects from the Churches around US that purged them and not let other Churches know about their findings and who these people were. What good does it do if you purge them from one Church and let them infest another Church like roaches.
3. Support and share ideas with people that could implement plans and strategies on how to scrape every last blood sucker from St. Michael Church. They have literally taken over the church, had controll of its money, keys, clergy, administration, etc. when a few members woke up and started asking questions. A few people have organized and are taking mahibere Kidusan head on.
4.As mesfin was asking for tangible information it is very important that any Orthodox Christian that has any helpful information, Please save your faith, save your church.
We also ask Ethiopian Review to provide pertinent information to Churches that are out there to be had by the wolves in sheeps clothing. There are some strong and educated people that are fighting the fight for the true Church, we ask everyone to pray to God for these people to be with them and give them the strengh until the dust settles and we all rejoice and worship God freely in spirit and in truth.
Mesfin and Bekelech, please send your contact at [email protected] and I will upload all availble info.
God save Ethiopia
Selam all
I have been following this comment section for sometime. One thing is clear. Most of you who are writing your comments are ignorant or plain stupid about the fact of the matter of the story in the first place.
The story is not about Mahibere Kidusan, they had no business there. It is a made up story to put the blame on someone.Call one of the members of the church and find out for yourself. In this information age, for God’s sake, don’t be driven on bits of a story like “yeGari Feres”. This is sad. I can clearly see that some people want to beleive in an anti-Mahibere Kidusan propaganda so much that they will start to make their own fairy tales (like Bertu). It is down right hilarious. I was laughing….
The so called – Bekelech,Mesfin,Denu, Goitom, Gurmessa etc… please find out the truth before you start “barking”.
Then other readers will take you for a person who knows what he/she is writing about. You sound so foolish, like those Tehadisso or Menafiqan who are always all over the place with their fairy tales when it comes to EOTC.
From what I have observed all these years in and around the church,there are only two kinds of Christians:
those who are committed to work for the church no matter what and those who pretend to (care). The latter is the group who delights in the fights and quarrels and pains in the Church,for they like to inflame it more “BeMarageb”. And I think, Mr. Elias belongs to this group,no disrespect intended. I have seen my comments disappear to the trash and to tell you the truth, Mr Elias likes to post those comments that only advance his intended agenda.
Hope this comment makes it to the site.
Beterefe – just a simple brotherly advice –
Please let us not pretend (if you claim to be a true member of the church-EOTC) instead work hard for the “One God, One Church, One Religion”. In the the end you are either working for or against the EOTC. (Regardless of Aba Paulos, because he will not be there for ever.)
So, on which side are you ? FOR or AGAINST ?
Cher yigtemen.
“Yetewaheo lij” You know, people like you are the ones that are letting our churches all over the U.S. be invaded with members and followers of Mahibere Kidusan and Aba Geberemedhin. Procrasniation and complacency opened the doors of our churches for our enemies. There are no fake stories or like you said “those who are committed to work for the church no matter what and those who pretend to (care)” committed, fine! but pretend? why would people that are concerned and are working hard to preserve the integrity and existence of the church pretend? you have no idea? Now, if you are a follower or a member of MK or Aba Paulos this all makes sense. But if you are not, it is for you to figure out whether what is being said is true or not before you spout your childish insults and ad nauseam idiosyncrasies. This is not childrens play time, this is serious business, and people like Bertu seemed to have put their money where their mouth is, they are doing what they can to curb this problems. You are right, you need to take a stand, you either are for the Church and the religion that the SON OF GOD and several innocent and devout christians gave their lives for or you are against it, which is it???? If you are the later, quit beating your drum of confusion and stand and be counted to fight on God’s side. I am sure you know you will fall misrerably if you are against God, because no one, but no one to date had won a fight with God.
Mesfin says:
“people like you are the ones that are letting our churches all over the U.S. be invaded with members and followers of Mahibere Kidusan and Aba Geberemedhin. Procrasniation and complacency opened the doors of our churches for our enemies.”
Dear Ato Mesfin:
You are telling me and doing exactly what is called ” blabbering without the facts of the story”. Because you hate Woyane, or Aba Paulos or someone or somebody, it still doesn’t make it right to blame someone or group without a shred of evidence. I am not fond of Aba paulos or the Woyane junta but I am not consumed with hate that blinds me from the truth. That is what makes a true Christian (it is all over the Bible – if you remember). And I try to be one, for I am no saint(for there is none). And that is not to be shameful. So, do you think this is childish? May be you still do, but I don’t think there could be enough reasons or evidence to convince you otherwise. ’cause you are here to vent your hate and frustration. But do you think it’s helping ‘the Great Cause for the Church’ as Saint Augustine used to say. I don’t think so.
I can write the whole story and back it up with evidence about the great work (even if it is small) this group (Mahibere Kidusan) is doing for the church,I know how they were formed (thru the late Abune Gorgorios and Abune Gabriel and other Church Fathers),how they function (remember – they are not saints),their policy,etc… but the likes of you would not care, ’cause you(forgive me if I am wrong)are more of a politician than a Christian.
So, it will take Mr. Elias to shut us down before we can convince each other, anyway. Don’t you think ?
Therefore, let us agree to disagree and move on to do our share to support the effort being done by the true members of the Church. What do you say ?
In the mean time if you still want to find out the truth about the conflict in the story or about Mahibere Kidusan call the right people, call your family or friends in Ethiopia and ask them about this group. Dig in and dig out! That is how it should be done all the time.
Tsome Filsetta is almost here. Let us fast and pray for the peace, unity and prosperity of our Church and country.
God bless, Cher yigtemen
Dear YeTewahedo lij
Abuna Gorgorios, the revered archbishop indeed try to teach the sheep with wolve’s cloth and only to realize at the end by regretfully uttering: “…Believing that I prepare a generation to withstand Menafekan, Oh Lord forgive me that I indeed have unleashed a bonfire on Ethiopia”
How do you make peace with an organization who is bent to destroy you. You are asking to believe what we hear like you, instead of what we saw and still seeing. The following cities in North America alone are enough evidence to attest the evil mission of mahebere ‘Kidusan”‘ and their unsuccessful attempt to implode the following Orthodox Churches:
Los Angles, CA in 2004(2 Churches)
San Diego, CA in 2004
Oakland, CA in 2005
San Jose, CA in 2005
Denver, CO in 2004
Seattle, WA in 2004
Atlanta, GA in 2003
Houston, TX in 2003
New York, NY in 2004
Washington D.C. (at least 3 churches)in 2003-2008
Columbus, OH in 2005
Tampa, FL in 2006,
Dallas, TX 2002-Present
las vegas, NV 2004-2007 and the list goes on and on.
As Bertu accurately narrated, Mahebere kidusan is a highly paid mercenary force of Woyane whose life has begun only for it to be extinguished soon along with its masters. The reason is simply:
‘And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.’ Matthew 16:18
Amen! and Long Live our church
Enough of this!
Next time we need to come together and form a web group that will expose who is who in Mahebere Kidusan in every city in Europe and here in US. This will address Bekelech’s #2 point and minimize the confusion and destruction of this orgaization.
We also know that the Aba Paulos church in Nairobi Kenya is one of the highest recruiting campground outside of Ethiopia. They are highly trained and indoctrinated prior to coming to the United States, and by some estimate the most vulgar gangsters this Mahebere able to graduate.
WHAT A DUBIOUS DISTINCTION FOR ANYONE WHO CLAIM TO BE A CHRISIAN, A FAITH BORN OUT OF HUMILITY AND LOVE.
Mr. Aleka,
What a refreshing thought, once in a while someone would rise with an idea that solves several problems together. Look guys, we were concerened and were asking for any help that would pluck these blood suckers out of our Church, before they bleed her out of her children, finances, and completely destroy her. Now we run into Aleka, and low and behold the question we raised became global. We need short and long term plans. Short term, let us find any and all tangible evidence that would make MK flee and never try again. Long term Let us take Aleka at his word and organize and defend and/or attack the attackers. Somebody please give us a complete story on the recruitment Center in Kenya. This is a crucial turning point for our fight. Like Mesfin said our complacency got them to this stage, let us show them our firm stand for the sake of our Church by exposing them and their evil deeds to our Churches and to our brothers, sisters and our elderly fathers. In our Church hierarchy, since when a deacon talks down to a priest in so many words, in Bete Mekdes. This is taking place in St. Michael Dallas today. Sympathiers and/or MK members like Yetwahedo Lij call this blabbering or hate. Let us not forget this is America where everyone is entitled to his opinion, regardless of whether it makes sense or not or they are down right lying. Hate has no place in the Christian life, Love does. But kicking Saitan’s followers out of God’s house is definetly loving them to death. It is a duty of any Christian to stand guard to protect the Church Jesus died for. Aleka if you happen to have a tangible evidence concerning the school in Kenya. Your propsal concerning the exposing committee on the web should materialize, I am all for it. Let us all put their names and stories up for the world to see and know them for what they are, and let us not rest until every little one of them are exposed and can’t find refuge in any of our innocent and unsuspecting Churches.

Let God Forgive us all! Instead of looking at our own faults, we always point to other’s faults as if we are perfect. When do we forgive others and repent for our own sin? This is a time to love each other and try to separate Politics from Religion and pray hard so that God give all Ethiopians, Eritrians, and the whole world peace, love and his kingdom. STOP arguing! All these comments above are argumentative and hurting people’s feelings! if Virginia Kidane Miheret cleans itself well and fine and move on! If money involved, let the almighty GOD JUDGE how that money is used. You gave your money for the church and you shouldn’t question it where it goes?
Please PRAY! FORGIVE! and REPENT!
Peace be upon you ALL!!!
