Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all consolation,
who consoles us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to console those who are in any affliction with the consolation with which we ourselves are consoled by God. …..
URGENT APPEAL
AID TO LEBANON
Dear members of the Lebanese community and friends of Lebanon,
Following up on our appeal of 24 September 2024, to meet the growing demands on the healthcare system in Lebanon in terms of urgently needed medications and medical supplies identified by the Ministry of Public Health of Lebanon, you can kindly help in two ways:
1) Financially, by supporting a fundraising campaign that the Consulate is launching through the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) USA. With your contributions, UNICEF and partners will procure and deliver medications and medical supplies to Lebanon. UNICEF has been working in Lebanon for over seven decades, providing life-saving support to children, protecting their rights and helping them achieve their potential. Your tax-deductible donation can be made on the following link: UNICEF Support for Lebanon, or by clicking on the button below.
2) Separately, donations in kind, by sending needed medications and medical supplies to a storage location in preparation for shipping them to Lebanon. The location was kindly provided by Cappelli New York on the following address: 3 Empire Blvd., South Hackensack, NJ 07696. The items can be dropped off at the location on weekdays anytime between 9am and 6pm. They can also be shipped to the location at any time. For any needed assistance you can reach out to Mr. Imad Hassan on (917) 754-8666.
The two lists of medications and medical supplies that are urgently needed are available on the following links:

Support Evangilization in the Middle East
“Let your light shine before others.” Said our Lord.
Tele Lumiere and Noursat, like many other institutions in Lebanon and the Middle East, is suffering tremendously and in danger of shutting down if it is not supported.
Very few parishes in the USA, of all Middle Eastern traditions, are supporting it. True there are millions living in poverty in the Middle East and we need to help them, but there are more millions living in darkness and need the message of hope and salvation. It is our responsibility to evangelize them.
We urge you in Christ’s name to help support Noursat. Here are few brotherly suggestions:
Talk about Noursat’s role of evangelization in the Middle East.
Announce this weekend the two-days Telethon. Share on your social media the attached video and flier about the Telethon.
Include in your weekly/monthly bulletin the attached flier about supporting Noursat.
God entrusted Noursat into our hands, let us unite our hands and hearts to keep it shinning.
With prayers and thanksgiving.
Chorbishop sharbel Maroun
President of Noursat, USA
