An apocalyptic scene that can only be seen in movies. The damages are devastating, the losses overwhelming. Today’s numbers read: over 160 dead, 6,000 injured, 60 still missing and 300,000 homeless. Our main seaport completely gone. People’s houses and businesses destroyed. This comes after an economical crisis unlike any other we have ever seen, hyperinflation of +80% in the past months as well as the Covid19 pandemic. </p><p>I have compiled here a list with links of reputable organizations which are actively working to assist those affected on the ground and you can be sure by helping them you will be helping real people in need. </p><p> If you wish to donate to help:</p><p>- Lebanese Red Cross: @lebaneseredcross - https://www.supportlrc.app/donate </p><p>- Children Cancer Center: @ccclebanon - www.cccl.org.lb/RescueFund</p><p>- Caritas Lebanon: @caritas_lebanon - http://caritas.org.lb/get_involved/donate </p><p>- World Food Programme: @worldfoodprogramme - https://donatenow.wfp.org/lebanon-emergency-appeal-c/~my-donation?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=cpm&utm_campaign=23845400993620086</p><p>- UNICEF Lebanon: @uniceflebanon - https://uni.cf/beirut_expl_f</p><p>- Lebanese Food Bank: @lebfoodbank - https://donate.lebanesefoodbank.org</p><p>- Arc En Ciel: @arcenciel.aec - http://www.arcenciel.org/donate/</p><p>- Sesobel: @sesobel -https://sesobel.org/en/sengager/faireundon</p><p>- Impact Lebanon: @impact.lebanon -https://www.impactlebanon.org/donations/new</p><p>- Solidarity Lebanon: @solidaritylebanon - https://www.solidarity.org.lb/people-below-poverty-line/</p><p>Or to the 5 destroyed hospitals (which unfortunately are the main hospitals in Lebanon): </p><p>- St Georges Hospital: www.stgeorgehospital.org/stgeorge-donation</p><p>- Geitaoui Hospital: www.gofundme.com/f/help-a-beirut-hospital-recover-from-the-explosion</p><p>- Hotel Dieu Hospital: www.hdf.usj.edu.lb/donation.php</p><p>- Wardieh Hospital: www.givingloop.org/rosarysistershospital</p><p>- Quarantina Hospital</p><p>Any and all help is greatly needed and highly appreciated. </p><p>Feel free to share 🙏🏻</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr0Fi9CLu5_RKxUYrUpcCqO0F3fznZ94WSUryBnpBFf5K9D39Tr6zcPGd0HOcOYzPTT7KWwEIbsYV4UEHdDyokXTN6zoKls_Xcal1mcY3c59qorm4u6vuB6xSX-JcDBqBag6KG/s964/29CB4825-E24E-44BF-BF13-ED4A15CA77D2.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="732" data-original-width="964" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr0Fi9CLu5_RKxUYrUpcCqO0F3fznZ94WSUryBnpBFf5K9D39Tr6zcPGd0HOcOYzPTT7KWwEIbsYV4UEHdDyokXTN6zoKls_Xcal1mcY3c59qorm4u6vuB6xSX-JcDBqBag6KG/s640/29CB4825-E24E-44BF-BF13-ED4A15CA77D2.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><p>📸: Caritas Europa #beirutexplosion #beirutblast #donatetohelpbeirut #beyrouth #lebanon #liban #لبنان #weshallriselikethephoenix #بيروت</p>Jounounehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01397687437359267875noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31295440.post-55624001702601820362016-12-12T13:33:00.000+02:002016-12-12T13:33:46.033+02:00Hope for Jose<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #4a4a4a; font-family: "Open Sans", Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em;">

This is the story of 2 years old Joseph (Jose) Gergess. Jose's family has issued a call for help throughout the Lebanese media, public figures, politicians and social media as this adorable 2 years old baby boy is in urgent need of an 850,000$ bone marrow transplant.</div>

I have an almost 2 year old baby girl and Jose's story touched my heart. I am not directly involved but spreading the word is another way to help as the more people are involved the more the small amounts that we can spare this Christmas season can help save little Jose's life. Small amounts can go a long way if we reach enough good- hearted people willing to help! #pleaseSHARE #pleaseDONATE #donateONLINE</div>

Quote from Jose's father, Roy Gergess: "Joseph and his mother travelled from Lebanon to the USA on September 12th for an appointment with Dr Fariba Rezzae (Pneumologist - Cleveland Clinic) because Joseph has been suffering with Pseudomonas Pneumonitis and was intubated and on respiratory ventilation for the last 2 years. After almost three months of continuous tests and hospitalization, the doctors concluded that Joseph is suffering from a Severe Combined Immune Deficiency (SCID) due to a mutation in gene SP110 that leads to life-threatening liver fibrosis. The only cure for the SCID to prevent liver fibrosis is allogenic bone marrow transplant from a healthy donor. The cost of the hospitalisation and physicians services (From 12/09/16 until 1/12/16) are 727,870.50$. In addition to that, the estimated cost of the transplant is between 750,000.00$ and 1,000,000.00$ leaving us with an overdue of approximately 1,700,000.00$. After applying 50% discount on the bills since Joseph is an international patient, we need to secure the amount of approximately 850,000.00$ in order to give Joseph a new chance in life. All the documents are available on the dropbox link below.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><a href="https://www.dropbox.com/sh/mhq5anl3zsrcxjm/AACtV1ZNJqcmLJr-HcJAXoVxa?dl=0" style="background: 0px 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #2469a0; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">https://www.dropbox.com/sh/mhq5anl3zsrcxjm/AACtV1ZNJqcmLJr-HcJAXoVxa?dl=0</a><br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />We thank you for your kind support.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />Roy, Jimmy and Joseph Gergess"</div>

A small citadel built upon a massive rock, it overlooks the old caravan
road linking Batroun to Triopoli. Its exact origins are unknown, but
ideas range from a Crusader castle later used and reinforced by the
Arabs to a fortress constructed by a local governor to protect the
caravan route. It is believed to date from the 15th or 16th century. </div>

<b>Jezzine</b> (also spelled Jizzin) is a town in Lebanon, located 22 km (14 mi) from Sidon and 40 km (25 mi) south of Beirut.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-autogenerated2_0-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jezzine#cite_note-autogenerated2-0"><span></span><span></span></a></sup> Surrounded by mountain peaks, pine forests, and at an average altitude
of 950 m (3,117 ft).
The town is also famous in Lebanon for its production of handmade,
traditional cutlery and daggers with decorative inlays as well as the
shrine of Our Lady of the Waterfall.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The name, Jezzine, derives from the Aramaic (Syriac)
word, meaning "depot" or "store". Many historians believe that Jezzine
served as a storing location for traders because of its strategic
location on the caravan route that connected the ancient port city of Sidon to the Chouf, the Beqaa Valley, and to Syria.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-autogenerated3_2-2"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jezzine#cite_note-autogenerated3-2"><span></span></a></sup><sup> </sup>The Australian 7th Division, with British and Free French forces, supported by the Royal Australian Air Force, Royal Australian Navy, Royal Navy and Royal Air Force, fought for Jezzine against Vichy French forces in 1941.</div>

<li>Jezzine's Waterfalls, some as high as 90 m (295 ft)</li>
<li>Our Lady of the Waterfall, a Marian shrine</li>
<li>The 400 years old Kanaan Family Palace</li>
<li>The Chir cliff that offers panoramic views of the forested mountains

<li>The Grotto of Fakhreddin II</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The inhabitants of Jezzine are mainly followers of the Catholic Church (Maronite and Greek Melkite). The Feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary is celebrated on August 15 of each year with grand religious and cultural festivities. The Jezzine Summer Festival where Lebanon's top pop artists perform attracts hundreds of people each summer. The Jezzine Public Library was built in 1960 and underwent extensive refurbishment and reorganization in 2004.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-autogenerated1_1-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jezzine#cite_note-autogenerated1-1"><span></span><span></span></a></sup> The production of pine nuts is the main agriculture product of
Bkessine, the neighbor of Jezine, as this village has the largest pine
field in the middle east. Jezzine is internationally renowned for its handcrafted knives and
other cutlery, made of inlaid mosaics and bone. The unique cutlery has
been presented as gifts to dignitaries all over the world as a unique
memento of Lebanon. Jezzine is South Lebanon's
primary summer resort. It is rich in natural beauty, featuring
pine-forested valleys and mountain summits, ponds, and waterfalls. The
town is known as the “City of Falls” because of its famous waterfalls,
the Jezzine Falls<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-autogenerated3_2-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jezzine#cite_note-autogenerated3-2"><span></span><span></span></a></sup></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">The great joy of between 50,000 and 60,000 people filled the multi
hall Forum de Beyrouth in Beirut, Lebanon, when Medjugorje visionary
Marija Pavlovic-Lunetti took the apparitions to the Middle East on
Saturday. An identical number of people were present when the event was
repeated on Sunday. Led by the Maronite Archbishop of Beirut, Monsignor Paul Matar, about
100 priests were present. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;">The Archbishop presided over the Mass on
Saturday. Confessions were heard throughout the hall, the Lebanese
newspaper L’Orient Le Jour
is reporting. Like eyewitnesses, the local news media estimates about
100,000 people attended the two days of prayer and sharing.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">“It was an out of this world experience. I have been to Medjugorje
twice already but to experience this in my home country Lebanon is a
special blessing. People who attended (we were 50,000) were mostly
people who heard of the Virgin’s messages but were never able to travel
to Medjugorje. It was such an exceptional moment to us all. We were so
eager to have the Blessed Virgin appear in Lebanon and bless this torn
country” attendee Chirine Karout tells Medjugorje Today.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">“I personally thought that she was happy to come to a country where
Christians and Muslims are so devoted to her. The Lebanese needed so
much to experience this in order to revive their faith and become
messengers of peace in their country and in the region” Ms. Karout
continues.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">“More than 60,000 persons were in the Forum de Beyrouth at 3 pm
waiting for the programme to begin at 6 pm. It was so beautiful to see
all the Christians in Lebanon singing together to Our Lady, and for the
peace in our country. Marija told us that Our Lady blessed us and stayed
longer than usual, and that she looked at each and everyone present”
attendee Maha Zgheib reports to Medjugorje Today.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">“It was a once in a lifetime experience. We felt the presence of our
Mother with us, and love and peace filled our hearts” attendee Tamara
Abou Zeid testifies.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">On both days, the event was being broadcast live by the Lebanese tv
station Noursat. The transmissions revealed a crowd with an obvious
belief in the Real Presence of Jesus in The Blessed Sacrament which was
being carried through the hall as people were applauding and reaching
out for the monstrance.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Accompanied by her husband, Marija spent part of Sunday visiting the
shrines of Jbeil and Batroun, the newspaper L’Orient Le Jour further
writes. </span><br />

<h4 style="font-weight: normal; text-align: justify;">
You just cant keep a good city down. Or, in Beiruts case, a
turbulent past of decades of civil war hasnt taken the sheen off its
glossy, cosmopolitan swagger. Lebanons capital is far from your
"regular" Middle Eastern city: Nestled on the Mediterranean coast,
Beirut is an enticing combination of French designer boutiques in
rebuilt Downtown, chi-chi private beach clubs where bling is king,
cutting-edge galleries in converted warehouses and magnificent
third-century mosaics in the National Museum.<br />
<br />
You'll adore Beiruts juxtaposition of old and new, traditional and
downright funkiness. Restored Roman baths stand in the midst of the
business district, surrounded by gleaming skyscrapers and an Ottoman
palace. At Music Hall, in an old cinema hall, fez-wearing traditional
musicians play Arabic ballads for their 15-minute spot, after an '80s
cover band, while cocktail-dress Beiruti women belly dance with their
designer-jeans-clad partners supping cocktails. Soldiers with machine
guns keep one eye on families drinking coffee at midnight, with
squealing kids playing, on pedestrianized Place de L'Etoile square. Le
Gray luxury boutique hotel sits a moments walk from the bombed-out
Holiday Inn, still bullet-ridden from 1976 Lebanon Civil War.<br />
<br />
Small is definitely beautiful in bijoux Lebanon. In Beirut, you're never
far away from a ski slope (Faraya, 45 minutes away), cedar plantation
(an hour) and ancient Roman Temple (Byblos is an hour by bus). And on
your way to Byblos, you can whisk up by cable car to Harissa, the
immense hilltop statue, Lebanon's patron saint. Oh, and of course there
are beaches, right here in the city.<br />
<br />
And the icing on the cake? Well it has to be the food. From street food
of hot m'neesh al zataar (flat bread with herbs) to a tableful of Middle
Eastern mezze washed down with chilled Almaza beer or home-cooked
Armenian cuisine, locals love to dine out. And then party, hard.</h4>
