Maroun's Day, History & Lessons/By: Elias Bejjani/09 February/10/Click Here
On the ninth of February for the past 1600 years, Maronites in Lebanon and all
over the world have been celebrating the annual commemoration of St. Maroun, the
founder of their Catholic denomination. Every year, on the ninth of February,
more than ten million Maronites from all over the world celebrate St. Maroun’s
day. On this day, they pay their respect to the great founder of the Maronite
Church, Maroun the priest, the hermit, the father, the leader and the Saint.
They remember what they have been exposed to, since the 4th century, both good
and bad times. They reminisce through the past, examine the present and
contemplate the future. They pray for peace, democracy and freedom in Lebanon,
their homeland, and all over the world.

The
Maronite Patriarch Is Lebanon's Conscience/By: Elias Bejjani/February
07/2010/Click Here
The Maronite Patriarch, His Beatitude Mar
(saint) Nasrallah Boutros Sfeir is referred to by the majority of the
Lebanese citizens, both Christians and Muslims, as the conscience of the
country, and in fact he is. This wise 89-year-old hermit is an outspoken,
courageous, meek, faithful, and shrewd leader who owns no missiles, has no
militias under his control, and is not actually supported or sponsored by any
other country, which is the situation of many other Lebanese denominations. He
derives his power, respect, credibility and authority from a solid faith in the
Lebanese people and from their historic longing for freedom, democracy and law.
The emblem of the Maronite seat at Bkerki, reads: "For it the glory of Lebanon
was given". Maronites founded modern and free Lebanon as a democracy and a
multicultural mosaic. They have safeguarded it with ongoing sacrifices, and
throughout all their 1500 years of deeply rooted history made it an oasis for
all the persecuted in the Middle East and a heaven for freedom and tolerance
