The Saint Charbel’s Family.

 Saint Charbel Family is an ecclesiastic community, whose main mission is to minister its members to become monks in the heart of the world.

It is a school of prayers, fellowship to Jesus Christ and implementation of the fundamentals of the Bible in our families, parishes and society.

It all started in Annaya with the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, the Spirituality of Saint Charbel and following the example of the early Christian communal life that was devoted to the apostles teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, prayers and with the constant presence of Mary, the Mother of God.

It is all the work of the Holy Spirit and the outcome of extensive prayers in front of the hermitage of Saint Peter and Paul in Annaya, God granted this gift to the Church of Lebanon.

The members of the family are mainly priests, monks, sisters, and lay people, all together sharing prayers, bible studies, the celebration of the Eucharist and spiritual meetings.
