Wi Eegi Kerki

Wi Eegi Kerki is a church located in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The name "Wi Eegi Kerki" can be translated to English as "We Are One Church".

The history of Wi Eegi Kerki dates back to the early 20th century when Ethiopian Orthodox Christians began to establish churches in Europe and the Americas.

In the 1960s, a small group of Ethiopian Orthodox Christians in Amsterdam started meeting regularly for worship and prayer, eventually forming a church community.

In 1984, Wi Eegi Kerki was officially recognized as an Ethiopian Orthodox Church by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church Patriarchate.

The church has since grown to become one of the largest Ethiopian Orthodox churches outside of Ethiopia.

Wi Eegi Kerki is known for its vibrant worship services, which often feature traditional Ethiopian music and dance.

The church also provides community services, including:

• Education
• Healthcare
• Social support programs

Primarily serving the Ethiopian community in Amsterdam but also reaching out to other ethnic groups.

Today, Wi Eegi Kerki remains a vital part of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church diaspora, preserving the rich cultural heritage and spiritual traditions of Ethiopia while adapting to the unique needs of its international community.
