Priest Memihir Girma Wendimu is throwing the holy water at the possessed woman at the Yerer Sellassie church on the edge of Addis Ababa in Ethiopia on January 2014. The victims of black magic or different kinds of the demons are visiting him and the unconditionally believes in his saint help. Some of them looks normal and someone looks possessed at the first look. They are screaming, moving and wave their hands or even attack the others. They are suffering by different kinds of diseases or possessions. They believe that they are affected by the bad spirit inside of them. Exorcism is connected to orthodox Christianity and it's still practiced in Ethiopian churches. The local people really believes in the saint power of the priest and they don't hesitate to pay big amounts for their healing. Sometimes they are able to pay once the half or bigger amount from their monthly income. Wether the priest is a cheater (as many people does think) or he really helps or people get cured just purely by the power of their faith, the priest is still millionaire and always surrounded by his security which helps him to "clean" the way to his billionaire car where he gives the last autographs and leaves and people are probably getting more poor. At least the most "religious" ones who are giving him the half of their payment of maybe even more. (CTK Photo/David Tesinsky)
