Two Perth sisters were among the 43 passengers killed in a fiery bus crash in Ethiopia on Tuesday.
Seble and Maza Getachew had lived in Perth for a number of years and studied at Curtin University as international students before recently relocating to Melbourne.

Please at church and in the morning and before bed keep them in your prayers so that the lord may have mercy upon their souls and forgive them their sins. God be with us all.
