The International Ethiopian Evangelical Church is vibrant community of believers in the dc Metropolitan Area serving thousands of Ethiopians, Eritrean and other nationalities. In addition, the church is involved in holistic activities, where Ethiopians and Eritrean are facing hardship due to various conditions.

In recent years, the church has been working on a project involving Ethiopian and Eritrean migrant workers in Lebanon. According to IOM (International organization of Migration) there are approximately 70,000 women who are working as domestic help in Lebanon. Many of these migrant women have been subjected to undue exploitation and abuse.

This is a serious problem! Since 2008, in order to address the plight of the migrant workers, The International Ethiopian Evangelical church is mobilizing support to those victims in dire need. The Church has managed to help a number of Migrant workers to be rehabilitated and or re-integrated into society. The church has also developed a comprehensive project proposal to support and streamline its activities.
