Ethiopia

Ethiopia is one of the oldest countries in the world. In the long and disturbed history of the African continent, Ethiopia remains the only country which has never been colonized. Ethiopia was a founding member of the AU and is home to the African Union's headquarters. The Old Testament of the Bible records the Queen of Sheba's visit to Jerusalem. Ethiopia is located on the eastern Horn of Africa, but is cut off from the Indian Ocean by three other narrow countries. The history of Christianity in Ethiopia stretches back to Philip’s encounter with the Ethiopian official on the Gaza road in Acts 8. With 84 distinct language groups, Ethiopia is still a focus of Bible translation activity. Thank you for your interest in furthering the advancement of Bible translation in Ethiopia, your support and prayers.  Please visit our website to search for any ministry opportunities in Ethiopia at https://wycliffeassociates.org/.
