Seattle Fasika
The mothers’ choir sings at St. Gebriel Ethiopian Orthodox Church, near Seattle’s Judkins Park, in the early morning hours Sunday, April 15, 2012 celebrating Easter. More than a 1,000 people attended the service, worshipping inside the church, in a tent and in the parking lot. Many wore traditional white shawls, while the service was delivered in Amharic and Ge’ez, an ancient language once used in Ethiopia that is now only used in church

The Israeli police do not blink an eye when our party of one Ethiopian and four Europeans turns the corner opposite the door to a Coptic Orthodox chapel and slide through the entrance to the courtyard of the hermitage. Here priests are already conducting the service in a rectangular tent made of panels of clear and flowered plastic. The Greeks and Armenians require impossible-to- obtain passes to attend Easter Mass below in the church; the Ethiopians welcome all to the roof until packed to capacity.

I think everything published was actually very logical.
However, what about this? what if you added a little information?
I am not saying your information is not solid, however suppose you added something to maybe get people’s attention? I mean Ethiopian Orthodox Church Celebrates Easter AddisEthiopia Weblog is kinda vanilla. You could glance at Yahoo’s front page and see how they create article headlines
to grab viewers to click. You might add a related video or a related pic or two to get readers excited about everything’ve got to say. In my opinion, it might bring your posts a little livelier.
