The umbrella in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church is used to signify the presence of The Holy Spirit among us. It is opened during
the Holy Liturgy and held by a church deacon over the head of the Priest as he reads the Holy Gospel from The Bible.
Colorful umbrellas are commonly used year round while a WHITE umbrella is reserved for Easter.
