ETOTC: Empowering Our Community
The Emmanuel Tigray Orthodox Tewahedo Church (ETOTC) has become a crucial resource for our rapidly growing immigrant community. Beyond religious services, we offer a range of essential social services that support the well-being of our members. Our services include assistance with immigration, housing, document preparation, interpretation and translation, transportation, and the distribution of minor health supplies like masks. In times of bereavement, we help arrange burial services and provide financial contributions to cover related expenses.
