Hidden in the Highlands of Ethiopia What if some of the oldest and most remarkable Gospel manuscripts in the world were not preserved in Rome or Constantinople but in Africa?

Today, they stand as one of the earliest surviving illustrated Gospel books offering a powerful window into the origins of Christianity, the endurance of faith, and Africa's often overlooked role in preserving sacred history.
