Hamere Noah St. Mary Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church

Hamere Noah St. Mary Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church is located in Washington, D.C. and serves the Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo community. The church observes Zemene Tsige, known as the Season of the Flower, during which members participate in Tsome Qusqwam, a 40-day optional fasting period beginning September 26th and ending November 5th of the Geez calendar. This fast commemorates the journey of St. Mary, mother of God, to Egypt with St. Joseph and St. Salome, guided by the angel St. Urael, remembering their hunger, thirst, poverty, and suffering. The church maintains an active ministry with articles, FAQs, and spiritual guidance for its congregation. Recent church activities include the 17th Annual Diocese General Assembly and various spiritual events.
