We are all presuming she is Catholic. However, according to Wikipedia, she was raised in her mother’s faith, as Ethiopian Orthodox.

Maybe her husband was Catholic when they married. God bless them, however and with whomever they worship Christ. She is a modern heroine of the Church Universal.

Meriam Ibrahim was raised Ethiopian Orthodox from childhood, and was received into the Catholic Church in 2011 right before she married her husband Daniel Wani who is a Catholic.
I understand that the Copts, the Orthodox and the Catholics in Sudan are exceedingly close in faith and practice.
And it's just delightful that the Sudanese Covenant Evangelicals have embrace her as one of their own as well. This is the way it should be.
