In March this year we received the attached Bishop’s letter from Abune Lesanu-Christos Matheos in Bahir Dar. It was written in November, but it gives a vivid and informed view of life in the City. An email received from the Head of the school, also in March, indicates that little has changed, and tells of many displaced people migrating to the City and of soldiers dying in clashes outside the school fence. However the school itself continues to operate. She expresses her deep gratitude for the Trust’s support.

Communications to Bahir Dar remain severely restricted and it is difficult to get up to date news.
