My wife deals with the moment. The whole life is going to the end. However, in her life, she spends herself right now, that is, at all times, to love, to all: near and far, especially these last days, to our four grandchildren. Fatigue, there is no room for fatigue in her care for them. ...
Read more“His Name is John”
I have in my hands a book, currently in print, which I have entitled: "His name is John". This book, that will be published by An-Nour Orthodox Cooperative, was introduced by a foreword by my friend Dr. George Maalouly. My story with this book is quite a story. What prompted me to write it was ...

Read moreThe Living Church
From time to time, I get a call from one of the brethren, asking to book the church for a wedding or a baptismal service...

Why this question? We have all experienced that if someone in the house gets sick, ...
