Al-Rahi: Lebanon Can’t Overstep Security Council
Maronite Patriarch Beshara, who is on a three-day tour to the South, said Sunday that Lebanon cannot overstep the U.N. and the Security Council, in reference to resolutions issued by the world body.
In his sermon at the Sayyida church in Hasbaya, al-Rahi said: “Lebanon is going through a difficult and sensitive stage.”
The Lebanese should engage in dialogue, he said.
During his visit to Khelwat Bayyada in Hasbaya, the patriarch stressed that God has granted the Lebanese the wealth of diversity. He expressed commitment to the preservation of Lebanese families from all sects and confessions.
In Kawkaba, al-Rahi said Lebanon is the land of love. It is a message, he added.
“We stand in humility before the sacrifices of southerners so that this land remains the land of dignity and durability,” the patriarch said, adding: “We can’t build peace in our lives and communities without love.”
