Deir El Sultan Ethiopian Monastery in Jerusalem

We have no doubt that Israel's Prime Minister would not allow the historic monastery buildings to collapse and endanger its occupants. We, therefore, appeal to the Prime Minister to authorize the full repair and maintenance of the buildings as a matter of the utmost urgency in order to avoid an unnecessary disaster from occurring.

We also call on H.E. the Prime Minister of Ethiopia as well as His Holiness the Patriarch of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church to use their good offices by calling on the Israeli Prime Minister to facilitate the urgent repair of the historic Deir El Sultan Monastery premises.

We pray to the Almighty God to save the historic Ethiopian Monastery in Jersualem.
