Liq'a Kahənat Bərhanu, Timkat (Epiphany), Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, January 2009

Liq’a Kahənat (Archpriest) Bərhanu is the head of the church printing press, and has acted as my host in Addis. He is in charge of guests for the celebrations, and has gotten me special guest passes for Meskel and Timkat. An archpriest is the highest-ranked married member of the clergy, since only monks may become bishops. They are in charge of important church ministries and higher-level church offices under bishops and archbishops.
