"St. Maroun, born in the middle of the 4th century in Syria, was a priest who later became a hermit, retiring to a mountain in the Taurus range in the region of Cyrrhus, near Antioch. His holiness and miracles attracted many followers, and drew attention throughout the empire. Maroun is considered the Father of the spiritual and monastic movement now called the Maronite Catholic Church." (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).
Happy Feastday to all the Maronite Catholics across the world.
