The first episode is presents the story of The Ethiopian Eunuch, a significant figure in biblical history, who is mentioned in the Book of Acts (Acts 8:26-40). A high-ranking official of the Ethiopian queen, he was returning from worship in Jerusalem when St. Philip, guided by the Menfeskiduse/ Holy Spirit, approached him. Through their encounter, the Ethiopian Eunuch embraced Afrikan Christianity and was baptized, marking a pivotal moment in the early spread of the Beta/House of Krystian/Christian faith.
In the sacred history of the Eastern Tewahedo Faith, the indelible mark left by His Eminence Abune Yesehaq stands as a testament to unwavering faith, tireless dedication, and a profound commitment to spreading the teachings of the ancient Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Faith. As the emissary and high priest of H.I.M. Emperor Haile Selassie I, Abune Yesehaq embarked on a historic mission to the West in 1952, a journey that would leave an enduring legacy and forever alter the spiritual landscape.
Abune Yesehaq was raised in the palace of Our Majesty. He was sent by Emperor Haile Selassie I to share the rich traditions of Ethiopian Orthodoxy. Abune Yesehaq faced the challenges of cultural differences and unfamiliar terrain with a grace that mirrored the serene landscapes of his homeland. His mission was not merely a Divine endeavor but a cultural exchange, an invitation to embrace the spiritual wisdom that had thrived for centuries in the heart of Ethiopia, the only nation in Africa that was never colonized and the Mother of the Beta/House of Krystian/Christianity.
Throughout his years in the West, Abune Yesehaq worked tirelessly to bridge the gap between the ancient Ethiopian traditions and the diverse communities he encountered. His teachings resonated with a growing number of followers, including faithful Rastafari families drawn to the mystery and profound teachings of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Faith. Abune Yesehaq’s gentle demeanor and profound knowledge became a beacon, guiding many on a transformative spiritual journey. He was our spiritual father and a moral compass for us all.
On December 29, 2023, the 18th memorial of His Eminence Abune Yesehaq, believers from around the world will gather to pay homage to a man whose life was a living testament to the universality of faith. His legacy endures not only in the churches he established and the congregations he nurtured but in the hearts and minds of those touched by his wisdom and compassion.
As the sun sets on this mystical day, the echoes of Abune Yesehaq’s teachings continue to resonate, reminding us of the enduring power of spiritual enlightenment and the profound impact one person can have on the collective consciousness of humanity.
