The graduation ceremony was attended by His Holiness Abune Qerlos 5th Patriarch of the Orthodox Tewahdo Church of Eritrea, as well as members of the Holy Synod and Archbishops.
Indicating that the College has been established in 2004 and started to provide formal education before four years, Father Silas Berhane, Assistant Dean of the College, said that the College will have a significant contribution to the overall development of the Church.
Abune Qerlos also handed over certificates to the graduates and medals of merit to outstanding students.
