griego catolico Member G Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 1,521 Likes: 10 The Golden State	Originally Posted by Orthodox Catholic But who are the Ethiopian Martyrs here? Alex It is my understanding that they were two groups of Ethiopian Christians who were killed in Libya. One group wore the orange jumpsuits while the other group wore black. I am not aware of any published list of names nor if they have been canonized by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church.
