Shepherd's Role in Hovik's Beatification Mass
Patriarch Mar Bechara Peter Rizk Al-Rahi held a prayer of thanksgiving at the Holy Family Monastery in Abraim, on the occasion of the beatification of Patriarch Elias Hrawi, who is regarded as an important national and spiritual figure for Lebanon and the Maronite Church. The sermon touched on Hrawi’s life, highlighting that he was a man of faith, patriotism, and the founder of the Maronite Holy Family Sisters’ Society, which aims to educate girls and promote family values. The speech emphasized the importance of Lebanon, which Hrawi fought for its independence, and the need for the nation to regain its ideals and light by adhering to patriotic and faith-based principles. It also stressed the necessity for leaders to be like an anchor that preserves the institution and a light that illuminates the community’s path. In September 2026, Lebanon’s Lebanese Army Day will be celebrated, symbolizing unity and national stability. The celebration underscores the importance of building a strong state with unified institutions, drawing inspiration from Hrawi’s life of work and sacrifice for Lebanon.
