Following the words of Jesus and the example of Saint Anthony the Great,
we, the Antonine Sisters, leave everything behind to follow God, our sole treasure.
The life that we received from God we give back to Him through service and devotion.
Like Mary, the first consecrated woman, we live joyfully to proclaim the greatness of the Lord
who is the Way, the Truth and the Life.

Annual Assumption Pilgrimmage

Each year, we look forward to celebrating the Assumption Pilgrimmage at the National Shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon. This year, even more people agreed that the ambiance was deeply spiritual and that God's presence was manifested in many ways. Throughout the three pilgrimage days (August 13, 14, 15), pilgrims and visitors participated in the talks, rosary prayers, prayer services and confessions planned for the event and each night the crowds gathered and prayed for Our Lady's intercession. May Her intercession remain with us as we pray: Our Lady of Lebanon, pray for us!
