እግዚአብሔር ሆይ! በየቀኑ ጥበቃህ አይለየን፤ በመከራ ጊዜም ታደገን (ኢሳ 33፥2)




እግዚአብሔር ሆይ! በየቀኑ ጥበቃህ አይለየን፤ በመከራ ጊዜም ታደገን:: (ኢሳ. 33፥2)


‎በአርሲ ሀገረ ስብከት በሽርካ ወረዳ በተፈጸመው አሰቃቂ እልቂት እና በወገኖቻችን ላይ በደረሰው ከባድ ጥቃት የተሰማንን ጥልቅና መሪር ሀዘን እንገልጻለን።


‎የሰው ልጅ በእግዚአብሔር አርአያና አምሳል የተፈጠረ በመሆኑ፤ ሕይወቱና ክብሩ የማይተካ መሆኑን ሟችም ገዳይም የማይዘነጋው ሀቅ ነው። በአርሲ ሽርካ ወረዳ የተፈጸመው ዘግናኝ ድርጊት ከሰውነት የወጣ የማኅበረ ሰቡን ሰላም የሚያናጋ አሳዛኝ ክስተት ነው። በዚህ የመከራ ወቅት ከተጎዱት ወገኖቻችን ጎን በመቆም፣ በጸሎትና በሰብኣዊ ድጋፍ እንድናጽናናቸው፣ በሚመለከተው አካልም ፍትሕና ተጠያቂነት እንዲረጋገጠ፣ ዘላቂ ሰላምም እንዲመጣ ጥሪያችንን እያቀረብን ‎በግፍ የተሠው ወገኖቻችን እንደ መጀመሪያዎቹ ሰማዕታት የሕይወትን አክሊል እንደሚቀዳጁ ሙሉ እምነታችን ነው።


በዚህ አስቸጋሪ ወቅት፤ ቤተ ክርስቲያናችን ለዘመናት ጸንታ የቆየችው በደም ሳይሆን በምሕረት፣ በክፋት ሳይሆን በይቅርታ መሆኑን አምነን፣ ምእመናን በዚህ ፈተና ውስጥ እንደ አለት የጸና እምነት እንዲኖራቸው አጥብቀን እናሳስባለን።


‎አምላካችንና መድኃኒታችን ኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ፤ ሕይወታቸው ላለፈው ዘለዓለማዊ እረፍትን አካላዊ ጉዳት ለደረሰባቸው ቤተ ሰቦች መጽናናትን ይስጥ፤ ቅድስት ቤተ ክርስቲያናችንን ይጠብቅልን፤ ለሀገራችንም ሰላሙን ለሕዝባችን ሰላምና ፍቅርን ያምጣልን!

O God, may your protection not depart from us every day; And save us in the time of trouble. (Isaiah 33:2)


We express our deep and bitter sorrow at the horrific massacre that took place in Shirka Woreda of the Arsi Diocese and the severe attack on our people.


‎Since human beings are created in the image and likeness of God; their life and dignity are irreplaceable, it is a fact that neither the mortal nor the murderer can forget. The horrific act that took place in Shirka Woreda of the Arsi region is a tragic incident that has shaken the peace of the community. In this time of trouble, we stand by our people who have been affected, comfort them with prayer and humanitarian support, and call on the responsible authorities to ensure justice and accountability for the peace to come. We fully believe that our people who have been victims of death will receive the crown of life like the Martyrs of the past.


‎In this difficult time; our church has stood firm for centuries not with blood but with mercy, not with evil we strongly urge the faithful to have faith as firm as a rock in this trial.


May our God and Savior Jesus Christ; grant eternal rest to those who were massacred, to the families of those who have suffered physical injuries; protect our Holy Church; and bring peace and love to our country and our people!


‎His Eminence Abba Philip (Dr.)

‎President of Holy Trinity University, Archbishop of the Diocese of South Omo and Ari Zones
