In the Ethiopian Holy City of Axum – where we Orthodox Christians believe The Ark of the Covenant is housed — a massacre took place on 28 November 2020, continuing on 29 November, tallying more than 800 Christian worshipers deaths, according to AP’s Feb 17 report of witness accounts. (AP , Feb 17, 2021)
God says, “Dust thou art, and unto dust thou shalt return.” In other words we are not consigning to the grave mere dust. We are burying the body of someone who is made in the image and likeness of God. From the dust God had created man and transformed him by breathing into his nostrils the breath of life. Everyone is a living soul.
The Axum Massacre martyrs were incinerated, with some even having their bodies scattered by being thrown into a river to be separate from one another, atom by atom. Others were lost everywhere and their bodies were never discovered. Others were devoured by carnivores. But we believe that our dust is precious to God. Nothing is lost or irrecoverable to him. As that is true, in life we are not our own but belong, body and spirit to God, so too in death our bodies are still his. We dare not have a demeaning attitude to them.
Interesting, in the movie “Raiders of the Lost Ark”? The Ark of the Covenant was filled with sand.
The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob will not be mocked, and, in Raiders of the Lost Ark, when French archaeologist and rival of Indiana Jones, René Emile Belloq attempted to mock him—and that entire exercise was a blasphemous mockery—he found that not only was there nought by sand in the box, but just like the faithless man who tried to steady the Ark and was smitten down for disobedience, those who attempted to abuse it faithlessly were similarly not rewarded with the contents, but dust. “For dust thou art, and unto dust thou shalt return.”
Indiana : Marion, don’t look at it. Shut your eyes, Marion. Don’t look at it, no matter what happens! Indiana : The Ark of the Covenant, the chest that the Hebrews used to carry around the Ten Commandments.” — was his way of saying, “God, we’re not with them!” as the Destroying angel—ostensibly the same one that killed the Egyptians millennia earlier—swept through the Nazis.
💭 In the past 16 months, half a million Orthodox Christians were massacred and starved to death in Tigray, Ethiopia by The illegitimate fascist Oromo regime of Ethiopia. Unlike Ukraine, the whole world remains indifferent and silent to the #TigrayGenocide. International organizations like The United nations and the African Union, apart from the occasional media statement, they’ve pursued a path of all-too-quiet diplomacy. Not enough solidarity even from the Orthodox Christian world. In fact, the Russian and Ukrainian governments are supporting the genocidal, anti-Orthodox-Christian, anti-Ethiopia Oromo regime of Nobel Peace Laureate Abiy Ahmed Ali. Mind boggling, isn’t it?!

💭 ‘It is like it was raining mud’: Eerie-looking sky raises concerns across Europe
A ski resort looked like a desert and the sky resembled that of Mars as dust from Africa expanded across western Europe this week.
Imagine stepping outside to a world where the sky was rusty orange and, although it was daytime, the sun could not be seen. For people across western Europe early this week, no such imagination was needed as the sky looked like an apocalyptic scene straight out of a science fiction film.
In addition to creating an eerie appearance in the sky, the dust is also a natural air pollutant.

Controlling the terrestrial origin of all winds that create storms, tornados and hurricanes (Zion-Ethiopian Mountains) is the clandestine mission of the Luciferians. The on-going operation against ancient Christians of Ethiopia, against its churches and monasteries being as part of this mission.
The Holy Bible speaks of the north wind, the south wind, the east wind and the west wind. The four directions have immense spiritual significance. The west wind is symbolic of restoration. The west wind is mentioned only once in the Bible. The east wind brought the locusts and completely destroyed the vegetation in Egpt. But God brought the west wind to remove all the locusts in the land of Egypt and bring about restoration.
„And the LORD turned a very strong west wind, which took the locustes away and blew them into the Red Sea. There remained not one locust in the territory of egypt.“ [Exodus 10:19]
St. Thomas The Apostle brought Christianity to the south of the Indian Subcontinent to the current Kerela State in 52 AD. The west wind brought such European travelers and explorers like Marco Polo and Vasco da Gama to witness this. Vasco da Gama’s fleet reached India in 1498, the Portuguese were surprised to find Christian communities thriving in Southern India. They were even more surprised by the locals’ certainty that their church had been established by St. Thomas. They shouldn’t have been, as countless travellers, including Marco Polo, had claimed that the saint’s grave was there. St. Thomas had preached to the Hindus and the Jews of southern India and had won thousands of converts.
It was the west wind which brought The Holy Apostle Thomas, the apostle of Jesus Christ to begin God’s spiritual restoration of the Country of India. It must be also remembered that St Thomas landed on the West Coast, but was killed on the East Coast. St. Thomas was martyred on 3 July 72 AD, at Parangimalai, Chennai, in the Chola Empire, India.
🔥 GOING, GOING, GONE! Moment Church Spire Dramatically Topples to Ground in Storm Eunice Gales
THIS is the shocking moment a church spire snaps off and crashes to the ground after it was battered by Storm Eunice.
Damage to the Grade II listed building, built in 1856, has sparked concerns now arisen over its structural stability.
Matt Hodson, 17, who filmed the footage, told ITV news that he noticed the wind take a sudden violent turn when he went into his back garden.
“I was shocked – it was quite a surreal moment. I didn’t really expect it to actually fall – I was just filming just in case,” he said.
Reverend Claire Townes, a priest in at the church, added: “I literally thought to myself the church will be ok, it’s been here since Victorian times – and then two, three minutes later I had a telephone call from the police.”
The church said in a statement on Facebook: “Please do not come to the church to look at the fallen spire.
“We are awaiting the arrival of a structural surveyor as currently we cannot assure safety within the grounds until we know it is safe.”
Thankfully, nobody was injured by the the fallen spire.
Anglican Church Bans Women From Vicar’s Job on ‘biblical’ Grounds
An Anglican church has banned women from applying to its vacant post of vicar on ‘biblical’ grounds.
Holy Trinity Church in Wallington in south west London will now issue a job advert that specifically excludes female clerics from seeking the job.
The Church of England said such a move was rare but not unique. A spokesman said that because vicars and priests are ‘postholders’ rather than employees, the church does not fall foul of equal opportunities laws.
The decision to bar women from the £25,000 a year job was taken after a vote by Holy Trinity’s parochial church council.
The announcement made in the parish newsletter handed out to the congregation stated: “At our recent open evening we explained the parish church council’s view that the position of the overall leader (vicar) should be male for biblical reasons. Thank you to all those who shared their questions, views and points.
“We have now produced a summary sheet setting out the principle reasons from scripture for maintaining the historic position of this church on this matter.”
Women were first ordained as Church of England priests in 1994. Parishes can opt out of appointing female vicars by applying to the local diocese for ‘alternative oversight’ from a more conservative bishop.
A spokesman from the Diocese of Southwark said: “Although women play a full part in helping to lead a number of activities at Holy Trinity, Wallington they have asked for alternative oversight.
“Bishop Christopher Chessun has agreed to this and such oversight will be provided by the Bishop of Maidstone.
“This allows them to say, as a congregation, that they do not wish to receive the ministry of a woman Bishop or priest and thus to be able to advertise for a male priest.”
The campaign group Women and the Church (Watch) said it hoped that in the future discrimination against women priests would be outlawed but accepted the right of congregations to opt for men-only vicars.
A spokeswoman said: “Although Watch pray for the day when women and men, without caveat, can apply for any role within the Church of England, we accept that this is not currently the case. We endeavour to continue to work together with those with whom we disagree on this point.”
“The poor souls who died in the Channel deserve the dignity of being described as who they were. Human beings. Men, women, children. Mothers, fathers, daughters, sons. They loved and were loved. In other words they were just like us. An unconscionable tragedy.””
Instead, they are speaking Amharic — Ethiopia’s administrative language and the native tongue of the Amhara people. Gundarta, who produced a translation of the speech in the videos, stated that the soldiers’ accents indicate that they are mostly native Amharic speakers from the Amhara Region, though some may be second language speakers from the Oromia Region.
CHANNEL TRAGEDY At least 33 migrants drown in deadliest ever incident on the Channel after inflatable dinghy flips over during crossing
A massive rescue operation is currently underway in French waters after the boat sank off the northern port of Calais, with at least three helicopters and three boats deployed to take part in the search.
Tonight, French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin confirmed 33 people died in the deadliest single disaster on the intensively-used route.
The French authorities said patrol vessels found corpses and people unconscious in the water after a fisherman sounded the alarm about the incident.
Following the sinking, Dunkirk prosecutors opened a criminal investigation for “manslaughter” and “assistance with illegal immigration in an organised gang”.
Mr Darmanin said four suspected traffickers “directly linked” to the tragedy have been arrested.
He told reporters: “1,500 people have been arrested since the start of January, and four of them today. We suspect that they were directly linked to this particular crossing.”
It follows claims that people smugglers had organised the passage of the overcrowded boat, charging thousands to those on board to get to Britain.

💭 Climate Scientists Shocked by Scale of Floods in Germany
Deluge raises fears human-caused disruption is making extreme weather even worse than predicted
The intensity and scale of the floods in Germany this week have shocked climate scientists, who did not expect records to be broken this much, over such a wide area or this soon.
After the deadly heatwave in the US and Canada, where temperatures rose above 49.6C two weeks ago, the deluge in central Europe has raised fears that human-caused climate disruption is making extreme weather even worse than predicted.
Precipitation records were smashed across a wide area of the Rhine basin on Wednesday, with devastating consequences. At least 58 people have been killed, tens of thousands of homes flooded and power supplies disrupted.
Parts of Rhineland-Palatinate and North Rhine-Westphalia were inundated with 148 litres of rain per sq metre within 48 hours in a part of Germany that usually sees about 80 litres in the whole of July.
The city of Hagen declared a state of emergency after the Volme burst its banks and its waters rose to levels not seen more than four times a century.
The most striking of more than a dozen records was set at the Köln-Stammheim station, which was deluged in 154mm of rain over 24 hours, obliterating the city’s previous daily rainfall high of 95mm.
Climate scientists have long predicted that human emissions would cause more floods, heatwaves, droughts, storms and other forms of extreme weather, but the latest spikes have surpassed many expectations.
“I am surprised by how far it is above the previous record,” Dieter Gerten, professor of global change climatology and hydrology at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, said. “We seem to be not just above normal but in domains we didn’t expect in terms of spatial extent and the speed it developed.”
Gerten, who grew up in a village in the affected area, said it occasionally flooded, but not like this week. Previous summer downpours have been as heavy, but have hit a smaller area, and previous winter storms have not raised rivers to such dangerous levels. “This week’s event is totally untypical for that region. It lasted a long time and affected a wide area,” he said.
Scientists will need more time to assess the extent to which human emissions made this storm more likely, but the record downpour is in keeping with broader global trends.
“A cease fire doesn’t mean cutting a region off power or destroying critical infrastructure.
A credible cease fire means doing everything possible so that aid reaches the millions of children, women and men who urgently need it. Saving lives should be a priority for all. #Tigray.” Josep Borrell
