EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Philippe Lissac, we witness a faithful individual engrossed in deep reading outside the Bieta Ghiorghis (Saint Georges House) church in Lalibela, Ethiopia. The image beautifully encapsulates the essence of spirituality and devotion within African Christianity. The subject's unwavering focus on the scriptures reflects their unshakeable faith and commitment to their religious beliefs. As they immerse themselves in the holy words, one can almost feel the spiritual energy emanating from their presence. Lalibela, known for its rich religious history and architectural wonders, serves as an ideal backdrop for this powerful moment. The ancient stone walls of Bieta Ghiorghis church stand tall behind the reader, symbolizing centuries of Christian tradition that have shaped Ethiopian society. This photograph not only captures a single act of devotion but also represents a larger narrative of faith and Catholicism in Africa. It reminds us that religion transcends borders and cultures, connecting people through shared beliefs and values. Through his lens, Lissac invites us to contemplate our own spiritual journeys while appreciating the diverse expressions of faith found across different continents. This image is a testament to both human resilience and our innate desire for connection with something greater than ourselves. As we gaze upon this print from Universal Images Group (UIG), let us be inspired by the dedication displayed by this faithful reader outside Bieta Ghiorghis church – a reminder that true spirituality knows no bounds.
