Festa de São Sharbel, 07/19/2009 Nossa Senhora da Fortaleza- Menjez-Akkar Padre Hanna Skandar Capítulo I: a primeira viagem Primeiro: Youssef Anton, em Bkaakafra 1 - A Sagrada Família O seu pai é Antoun Zaarour "Abu Hanna" de Bkaakafra, e sua mãe Brigitta Elias Yaakoub Al-Shediak de Becharre. Ele tinha dois irmãos: Hanna e Beshara, e duas irmãs: Kaoneh e Wardeh, ele foi o mais jovem. A origem nome do Pe. Sharbel foi Youssef; ele mudou quando ele entrou na Ordem. Seu pai era um simples agricultor como a maioria das pessoas de sua aldeia; ele estava vivendo do cultivo de suas propriedades, enquanto sua mãe cuidava da casa nas tarefas domésticas. Seus pais eram piedosos e justos; eles estavam interessados na criação de seus filhos devido a verdadeira educação cristã. 2 - A morte do pai durante os trabalhos forçados Nesse momento, o exército do príncipe de Líbano Emir Beshir Shehab estava fazendo uso dos proprietários de animais , a transferência para a Beit Eddin as culturas do príncipe, incluindo todos os tipos de grãos. Na época da colheita do ano 1832 Anton Zaarour tinha uma besta de carga, ele estava trabalhando na região de Mejdlaya (uma cidade entre São Paulo -sp e de Trípoli) .Não existe, ele foi impedido de trabalho forçado. Ele realizou em seu jumento uma cultura de Mejdlaya de Jbeil para ser enviada, depois que a Beit Eddin. Na sua vinda a volta de Jbeil Bekaakafra, ele chegou Gharfine onde ele ficou doente e morreu e foi sepultado. Assim em 8 de Agosto de 1831, Antoun Zaarouz deu o seu último suspiro na Gharfine localizado na região de Jbeil devido ao trabalho forçado. A viúva teve o cuidado dos filhos com a ajuda de seu irmão Tannous Zaarouz. 3 - O nascimento e o batismo de Sharbel A Casa de St Sharbel, avô materno, onde ele nasceu, é ainda de Khaldiyeh; ele foi renovado e convertido em uma igreja. Eles disseram que Brigitte usado para chegar a Khaldiyeh no inverno com sua família e seus animais, para fugir do frio e da pobreza. Ela ajudou seus pais durante a colheita da azeitona e fiquei lá por quatro meses. Youssef (St. Sharbel) nasceu no inverno de 1833, após alguns meses da morte de seu pai (1). Ele foi batizado na antiga igreja de Nossa Senhora da Khaldiheh, ou na igreja de Nossa Senhora de Bkaakafra. (.1-- por três motivos: - A mãe ainda jovem , ela deu nascimento após seu segundo casamento dois filhos: Tannous em 8 de Setembro de 1834 ... e Noah em 3 de Julho de 1837. - Youssef é o último filho, de seu primeiro casamento, e mais provável que a mãe estava grávida antes da morte de seu pai. - O sacerdote deve ter com ele, quando ele entrou na Ordem, um certificado que comprove o seu nascimento, batismo e confirmação ... assim o calendário de Annaya que registrou que ele tinha 20 anos em 1853 é mais lógico. ) 4-O novo casamento de sua mãe Brigitta casado Lahoud Georges Ibrahim, no mês de Outubro de 1833. Em seguida, ela se mudou com ele para Shlifa e Btedii onde ele possuía algumas terras. Por volta do ano 1850, Lahoud foi ordenado sacerdote, e chamou o Pe. Abdel Ahad . Ele não servir na Bkaakafra, mas na região de Baalbek, e morreu no ano 1853. 5º - Um órfão sob tutela do tio Youssef vivida como um órfão. O tio Tannous levantou-o com os seus irmãos. As crianças permaneciam na casa após o novo casamento de sua mãe. Brigitta foi negligenciá-las de vez em quando. Eles pareciam depois de cada outro, sob a supervisão de seu tio Tannous, e seus parentes distantes. 6-O mosteiro Hawshab escola de St. Youssef aprendeu a ler e a escrever, segundo o costume dos dias, dos padres da aldeia, no mosteiro de St. Hawshab, escola da aldeia naquele momento. Ele estava carregando um livro de oração sempre em suas mãos. Ele tinha um bom caráter e cuidado para com seus irmãos. Youssef cresceu com o aumento da idade, o conhecimento, a piedade e a justiça. Ele foi um bom exemplo, com a palavra e com as obras, entre as crianças de sua aldeia. Ele orou muito, e muitas vezes fui a confissão e comunhão. 7º - piada entre o desastre Youssef foi esperto e inteligente; por vezes, tendência a piada; ele teve muitas brincadeiras, do curso no contexto da polidez. Estava chovendo na segunda-feira 12 de Outubro de 1842 [ 2]. chuva era abundante, seguido de uma torrente que se apressou a Shaghoura em Becharre, cperder para os "cedros de Deus". Ele descreveu a cena em um famoso poema, e recitou-o na escola da aldeia, onde ele foi aprendendo a ler e escrever com outros amigos . Uma pequena enchente começou no "Toum Elmezrab" (3) E, em seguida, desceu a Shaghoura Os árabes em "Daher El-Qadib , disse. "O alívio que vem de Deus está próximo" Esta é uma grande oportunidade para o lobo. Para atacar uma ovelha ou cordeiro Os moradores de Becharre primeiro disse: pode fazer-se uma visita Esta é uma nuvem que não pode durar; uma passagem a nuvem. Quando ele atingiu Becharre o povo se confundiu Vamos levar nossas pás para fechar as lacunas Este torrent raked do vale e o pé esquerdo na parede As pessoas estavam gritando e chamando, o que um maravilhoso cenário! Quando ele chegou a Hadchit tomou a maior fama e glória As paredes se desmoronou, os maiores edifícios foram demolidos Em seguida, ela atingiu Qanoubine , derramando direito e esquerdo verter Os moradores tem perturbado, e se esconderam nas cavernas No Vale de Faradice é redobrado seus esforços e se tornou mais forte As pessoas levadas a imagem da santa e disse: livrai-nos ó Santo! Os habitantes de Bqarqacha, estas gazelas, todos perdidos Sleiman Youssef Hanna, os dentes tortos, projectado no pit No pit, ele abrangeu, e chamou o seu tio Sarkis Ele veio para sacudir o pó sua beca, em vez disso ele rasgou-a para baixo Tal como para os habitantes de sua aparência virou Bqaakfra pálido Quando eles decidiram mover eles usaram barcos não feras Os moradores de Hasroun e Bazoun estavam com medo do riacho Eles disseram, vamos cortar galhos e arbustos para preencher as ranhuras Em seguida, ela atingiu Hadad e Qnat, um agricultor-membro morreu Amoreira pendurada em uma árvore, no jardim do Hantoura Os proprietários da fábrica, "Shahla ", fugiu do terror. O miller tomou-o ligeiramente e, em seguida, de medo que ele encheu a cova. Os proprietários da fábrica, "Blatt "exclamou "Trazem-nos a lama para revestir e argila as rachaduras. Quando ele chegou a Joura Ó Deus, que cena! As maiores árvores no jardim, foi realizado para "AlKura". Em "Tourza" ele veio com força, todas as árvores tortas, "Ó povo! O que podemos fazer, nunca vimos uma cena! ". A Raskifa, os moradores, estavam doentes de vida As inundações levaram o solo e abriu cem sepulturas. A Kosba, cresceu forte e tornou-se mais violento, Que arrancadas todas as árvores com força inimaginável. Em Bsarma, um torrent, de grande orgulho Não poupar mão-menos copo, ou filtrador ou jarra pequena. A Kfarquahel (5), as pessoas eram traidores, e merecia o A mais forte das paredes desabou e deixou mais vestígios. Quando ele chegou ao "Dahr ElAain" que facturou ambos os lados Eles disseram: "a má sorte parece-nos, o sinal é claro o suficiente." Em "Abu Ali" as ondas subiram, maior e maior Algumas pessoas foram mortos, e outros abandonaram as suas casas. Quando ele atingiu El-Mina , que aconteciam e rugiam mais Que flui da direita e da esquerda, o castigo de Deus era visível. A água do mar tornou-se lama; as marés altas superaram qualquer expectativa Se ele durou um pouco mais, seria poupar nenhum barco. ( 2- a testemunha ocular ,Salim Khairalah, descreveu a inundação: em 3:00pm do rio " Abu-Ali "transbordou e a água cobriu a ponte; devastaram o portão de ferro (Bab Al Hadid), Al-Suwaïqa , o matadouro, o "Haraj" mercado, Al-Milaha , e atacou com fúria Cristã do bairro.

  • 6. Tourism and Recreation
    Lebanon State of the Environment Report Ministry of Environment/LEDO 6. TOURISM AND RECREATION Tourism in Lebanon has traditionally been urban based, i.e., most tourists head for other urban areas and poles such as beach resorts, country clubs, casinos, and restaurants. In recent years, however, tourism and recreation are increasingly practiced in natural settings such as forests, protected areas, valleys, and mountain areas. Traditional tourism is generally more destructive, as more land is used for accommodation (chalets, mountain resorts, hotels, furnished apartments). Moreover, new accommodation facilities in remote areas require access roads and other infrastructure (e.g., water supply, wastewater network, electricity). While nature tourism is less resource demanding, it could generate added sources of pressure on the environment if poorly managed. How the country will manage its natural heritage will set the pace for nature tourism in the future. 6.1 Targeted Description Figure 6. 1 Tourism in the National Economy Tourism represents an important (US$ million) and growing economic sector, generating 1400 US$1,300 million in net revenues in 1998, 1200 up from US$673 million in 1994 (see 1000 Figure 6. 1). In 1995, services including 800 600 tourism accounted for 16.4 percent of 400 GDP (up from 14.3 percent in 1973). 200 0 1994 1995 1997 1998 Source: MoT, Central Bank, CAS (LEDO Indicator #43) 6.1.1 Evolution of tourism Developing accurate estimates of the number of tourists in Lebanon is difficult due to the ambiguity about “who is a tourist”. Many Lebanese return home to see their relatives and declare “tourism” to be the purpose of their visit.

  • Lebanon Roads and Employment Project Frequently Asked Questions
    Lebanon Roads and Employment Project Frequently Asked Questions 1. What is the Roads and Employment Project (REP)? The Lebanon Roads and Employment Project (REP) is a US$200 million project that aims to improve transport connectivity along select paved road sections and create short-term jobs for the Lebanese and Syrians. The REP was approved by the World Bank (WB) Board of Executive Directors in February 2017 and ratified by the Lebanese Parliament in October 2018. The Project is co-financed by a US$45.4 million grant contribution from the Global Concessional Financing Facility (GCFF) which provides concessional financing to middle income countries hosting large numbers of refugees at rates usually reserved for the poorest countries. The project is implemented by the Council for Development and Reconstruction (CDR) in coordination with the Ministry of Public Works and Transport (MPWT), noting that all the roads under the REP are under the jurisdiction of the MPWT. In response to the devastating impact of the economic and financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic on the agriculture sector and food security, the project was restructured in March 2021: a third objective was added and a US$10 million reallocation approved to provide direct support to farmers engaged in crop and livestock production (Please refer to questions # 18 to 26) 2. What are the Components of the Roads and Employment Project? The REP originally had three components.
