Clutching an intricate bronze cross he
used to dig graves during Ethiopia's
1984-1985 famine, priest Alemayu Gede (L)
prays drought and high food prices will
not make him use it as a shovel again in
Korem, May 31, 2008. At the height of
the famine that caused more than 1
million deaths and spawned the Band Aid
project bringing dozens of top musicians
together to raise money, Alemayu helped
dig 200 graves a day with the symbol of
his faith which he carries everywhere.
