| Icon of Saint Frumentius from the Middle Ages |
History
Frumentius was born in Lebanon. He
and his brother, Aedesius, were sent to Ethiopia to tell people about Jesus.
They were shipwrecked on the way, but they still made it. Both were given
important jobs for the Ethipiean king. After a while,
Frumentius went to Alexandria to ask the bishop to send more missionaries to
Ethiopia. The bishop did so, but first he made Frumentius a bishop. He and his
brother are the apostles of Ethiopia.
Activity
Saint Frumentius loved the people
of Ethiopia and served them with all his heart. Tonight, make a simple but
tasty Ethiopian Dinner of Tsebhi Sga (beef stew), green beans, and Injera
(bread).
