'Our Lady of Lebanon' Maronite Catholic Church is a beautiful place of worship and prayer with well-cared-for spacious grounds. Nearby is a shrine open all day for personal time and meditation. Outside, a spiral staircase leads to the top where a breathtaking statue of 'Our Lady of Lebanon' stands with panoramic view of the surrounding area*👌🙏
Coming from a Roman Catholic Church, the traditional liturgy of Maronite Rite of Mass in Aramaic, the ancient language of Syriac which Christ spoke while on earth, is a unique experience that touches the soul*👌💕
