This is how we look at you, friends of Pilgrims of lbillin. You are our brothers and sisters. We all have the same dignity and the same yearning. We thank you wholeheartedly for your generosity and your help to the Pilgrims of lbillin. May the Lord reward you all and every one of you for your friendship and solidarity, no matter how high the amount you donate to Pilgrims provided your prayer and your friendship is granted. We surely need your prayers and your friendship, but whenever possible also your generous contributions wish would able us to continue the development of the educational projects at MEEI.
At present, we are in the full speed building a very much-needed retaining wall for keeping the mountain of falling stones from the big yard of the school. We are happy to have Laurie as our executive director.
To all of you, Merry Christmas. To all of you Happy New Year.
Yours Sincerely,
Abuna Elias Chacour
