A community of faith rooted in the Anabaptist tradition, serving Dire Dawa since 1956G.C. with the love of Jesus Christ.
Whether you are joining us for the first time or returning after years away, you are warmly welcome at Mehal Dire Dawa Meserete Kristos Church. We are a congregation committed to the Word of God, the fellowship of believers, and the transformation of our community through Christ's love.
We trace our roots to the extraordinary story of the Meserete Kristos Church of Ethiopia; a church that grew from 5,000 to over 50,000 members during years of persecution under Derg's Marxist rule, sustained by prayer, home fellowships, and unwavering faith.
