On Sunday morning, Lalibela comes to life when hundreds of white-robed worshippers flock to the ancient rock-hewn churches like they have done for centuries.
I remained here for a long while, in fascination of the scenes unfolding right under my eyes. While morning light was gradually seeping onto the landscape and the worshippers, more and more people in white robes arrived for Sunday morning mass in Lalibela. What had been white-dressed shadows before, became people with faces, faces with expressions, people fumbling the pages of their small holy books, sometimes fanatically or desperately praying worshippers. The always increasing crowd obediently followed the instructions of the priests whom they could not see, bending forward, standing up, praying, being silent. The sun popped over the edge of the horizon behind me, and the warm light of its rays fell over the crowd like a soft blanket.
