Wooden Stave Church Mekelle Stained Glass

by Terri Anderson

Honey-colored light pours through tall stained glass windows, bathing the interior of a wooden stave church in warm, amber tones. The intricate joinery of the dark timber walls stands out against the soft glow, highlighting the clean, uncluttered surfaces of the sacred space. Vertical beams rise toward the ceiling, their grain visible in the low-angle sunlight that signals the sun dropping toward the horizon. Dust particles float gently in the shafts of colored light, which shift across the polished floor in patches of red, blue, and gold. The restrained visual clutter emphasizes the devotional stillness, while the wet season outside suggests a quiet, humid afternoon where the interior remains a cool, sheltered sanctuary against the rising moisture.
