Maronite Patriarch Cardinal Bechara Al-Rahi urged politicians to swiftly address the social, economic, and security concerns that the Lebanese people is facing, calling for the election of a president in accordance with the Constitution in order to restore trust in the country’s constitutional institutions.

“Today, we pray for peace. God is a God of peace, not of war. We pray to the God of peace to awaken the consciences of the warlords so that peace may prevail in Lebanon and the region,’ Al-Rahi said in his Sunday sermon in Bkirki.
