When we celebrate the Feast of the Cross, it should be by solving our problems with reconciliation and forgiveness - His Holiness Abune Mathias
Abune Matias, Patriarch of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, called for "fighting with reconciliation, wrongdoing with forgiveness".Abune Mathias, in his speech during the celebration of Demera festival in Addis Ababa Cross Square today, conveyed the message "let us pray together" for peace, love and unity to be removed from the conflict in Ethiopia.
Abune Matias preached the importance of reconciliation in his speech when the Demera Cross was celebrated in the presence of followers of the faith, the Federal Government and Addis Ababa city government officials. Abune Mathias said in his speech that human beings can live by "reconciliation through reconciliation, injustice through forgiveness, poverty through development, infidelity through religion."
Abune Matias said, "There is no better option than to live in love and peace through reconciliation, peace and unity, through reconciliation, mutual understanding, respect and cooperation, mutual support and tolerance.
This can be realized not by clinging to the selfish thought of "me for me", but by having a sincere thought of "for my brother and sister". If not, it's when the common thought for all of us prevails over the human mind," he said. Ethiopia's Minister of Culture and Sports, Kejela Merdasa, and Addis Ababa City Mayor Adanech Abebe are among those who gave a speech at the celebration of the Demera festival at the Cross Square.

Within this effort, former chief project manager of GERD Engineer Simegnew Bekele is widely remembered for his immense dedication and ultimate sacrifice.
