Liturgies
Its worship reflects the Eastern Christian heritage of Ethiopia. The church incorporates elements of the Alexandrian Rite, including adaptations of the Liturgy of St. Dioscorus, historically associated with the Coptic Orthodox Church and the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church. Services often include chant, incense, vestments, and observance of the liturgical calendar — creating a worship experience that blends evangelical theology with Eastern ceremonial tradition, reflecting the church's identity as an Eastern Protestant denomination.

THE COMMUNION LITURGY WITH SIMPLIFIED ACCOMPANIMENT
The Apostolic Tradition of Hippolytus of Rome was composed in approximately 215 in Rome. It apparently preserved older second century practices which were in danger of falling to disuse or innovation. Hippolytus, a presbyter of the Roman Church at the time, was so distraught over the innovating practices of his former friends, the Pope Zephyrinus and his successor Callistus, that he set himself up as history's first antipope! He continued in this role through the rules of Callistus successors, Urban and Pontius, and in the time of Pope Pontianus, both he and Pontianus were exiled to Sardinia, from all accounts an extraordinarily unhealthy place, where they were forced to work the mines. Shortly afterward, in 235, both died there. Sometime before his death, Hippolytus was reconciled to the Roman Bishop. The two were martyrs, and their bodies were both brought back to Rome, where they were honorably buried.
