Des fid\u00e8les en deuil, des responsables religieux et le Premier ministre \u00e9thiopien Abiy Ahmed se sont r\u00e9unis samedi sur la place Meskel (Addis-Abeba) pour comm\u00e9morer feu le patriarche Abuna Merkorios.<\/p>\n
L’\u00c9thiopie, samedi, a fait ses adieux \u00e0 Abuna Merkorios, le quatri\u00e8me patriarche orthodoxe du pays, dans un dernier adieu.<\/p>\n
L’eccl\u00e9siastique, d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 \u00e0 l’\u00e2ge de 84 ans, \u00e9tait une figure marquante de l’histoire moderne du pays malgr\u00e9 27 ans d’exil.<\/p>\n
Des fid\u00e8les en deuil, dont l’actuel patriarche \u00e9thiopien Abuna Matthias et le Premier ministre \u00e9thiopien Abiy Ahmed, se sont r\u00e9unis sur la place Meskel \u00e0 Addis-Abeba pour comm\u00e9morer le d\u00e9funt \u00e9v\u00eaque.<\/p>\n
Le p\u00e8re Isaias Gebriselassie a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 : \u00ab\u00a0Je n’aurais jamais pens\u00e9 que Sa Saintet\u00e9 Abune Merkorios reviendrait dans sa patrie et serait enterr\u00e9e dans une telle dignit\u00e9. Aujourd’hui, j’ai appris que Dieu peut changer les choses, c’est vraiment un miracle.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n
Abuna Merkorios a \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9lu patriarche de l’\u00c9glise orthodoxe \u00e9thiopienne \u00e0 la fin des ann\u00e9es 1980. Cependant, l’\u00e9glise s’est scind\u00e9e au d\u00e9but des ann\u00e9es 1990 apr\u00e8s le renversement du r\u00e9gime alors au pouvoir.<\/p>\n
Abuna Mercurius a \u00e9t\u00e9 contraint \u00e0 l’exil et il a \u00e9tabli une autre branche de l’\u00e9glise aux \u00c9tats-Unis. Il est finalement retourn\u00e9 en 2018 en \u00c9thiopie apr\u00e8s que la m\u00e9diation men\u00e9e par le Premier ministre Abyei a permis la r\u00e9unification de ses \u00e9glises s\u0153urs.<\/p>\n
Les fun\u00e9railles du d\u00e9funt patriarche auront lieu dimanche \u00e0 la cath\u00e9drale Holy Trinity de la capitale \u00e9thiopienne.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
