Mrs. Anna-Kaarina and Rev. Matti Palmu, "The Palmus of Ethiopia", have served as missionaries in the Ethiopian Evangelical (Lutheran) Church Mekane Yesus (EECMY) 1974-1993, 2000-2009. They returned to Finland having finished their last (10th) working period in May, 2009. Until 1993 they were in Ethiopia as a whole family; out of four children three were born in Ethiopia. In the beginning of 2000 the Palmus returned to Ethiopia as an "old couple", the children didn't any more follow the parents. Presently their children are all married, and in 2009 there are already seven grandchildren in the family.
