Solomon Siyoum and Hadush Wereth are a member of Debre Berhan Holy Trinity Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church #EthiopiansInFlorida


From the Mathews Bridge downtown, see the red, yellow and green—the colors of the Ethiopian flag—that stripe the old gothic belltower, bright shades of spirit in the center of a drab post-urban emptiness.

The dark-brick church housed the congregation of Fairfield Methodist for 73 years and has been home to Debre Berhan Holy Trinity Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church since 2005. The cornerstone reads “Livingston Mission Methodist Episcopal Church 1912”; the sign out front bears the current congregation’s name in Amharic.
