Autor: Fr. Hanna Skandar
Sinopse: “Listen in order to hear, be humble in order to understand, believe and be courageous in order to witness, and love in order to be sanctified.” From his words, we can begin to understand the mysterious life of Saint Sharbel, born in 1828 in the small, mountainous village of Bekaa Kafra, Lebanon, a neighbor of the Cedars and guardian of the Holy Valley. On October 9, 1977, from the Basilica of St. Peter, Pope Saint Paul VI declared "Father Sharbel Makhloof, the Lebanese Maronite monk, a saint of the Church and for the whole world." Saint Sharbel led a life of solitude with God at the hermitage of Annaya, a small village 45 km north of Beirut. After his death, he became the companion of millions all over the world, regardless of their faith and nationality. As for the small hermitage on Mount Annaya, it became a source of grace for the entire world, a lighthouse where heaven is open and all who suffer can take refuge, glorify God, and obtain blessings. The registry of the Annaya Monastery continues to record hundreds of miracles every year from all over the world. This book describes the life and spirituality of Saint Sharbel based on the testimonies of witnesses from his era. It allows the reader to become familiar with Saint Sharbel’s contemporary culture and the details of his daily life.
