St. Charbel Makhlouf: The Miracle Worker of Lebanon and a Light for the World

  St. Charbel Makhlouf: The Miracle Worker of Lebanon and a Light for the World  Discover the profound life of St. Charbel Makhlouf, the Maronite hermit of Lebanon known for incredible miracles, an incorrupt body, and powerful intercession today. Learn about his history and modern-day healings. In the quiet hills of Lebanon, a silence cultivated over a century ago continues to speak louder than the noise of the modern world. It is the silence of Saint Charbel Makhlouf, a Maronite monk whose life of extreme hiddenness has blossomed into a worldwide phenomenon of healing and faith. For Catholics and Orthodox Christians alike—and indeed, for many Muslims in the Middle East—St. Charbel is not merely a historical figure; he is a living, active presence.

Genesis Chapter 5

  This is the list of the descendants of Adam.  When God created humankind, he made them in the likeness of God.  Male and female he created them, and he blessed them and named them humankind, when they were created.

Genesis Chapter 4

  Then the Lord said to Cain, 'Where is your brother Abel?' He said, 'I do not know; am I my brother's keeper?
