I went to Denver for funeral at the beginning of the year, and were so amazed that Ethiopians can really build such a magnificent church. There is hope at the end of the tunnel if we can all work in love and unity with many of our differences.

God Bless the Ethiopians in Denver who inspire all of us by their faith and deed.
