Outing with the elderly

Another event organized by the Lebanese Youth Order in which we participated: an outing with elderly people from a day center in Beirut.

In the morning we drove to the church St. Rafqa (a Lebanese saint) with a big bus. Whoever thinks that elderly like to sleep on a one hour drive is terribly mistaken. We had a small bus party with clapping, singing and dancing.

Once we arrived at the church we took a small break to enjoy the quiet and holiness of the place and then had a mass. After the spiritual program we drove to Surat, a small village in the mountains. There we had a delicious lunch at Dr. Issa’s house. And after a wonderful day out we drove back home (this time sleeping J ).
