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 Pilgrimage

It looked like a sea of people gathered around the Blessed Virgin statue on the Assumption Feast at the National Shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon. The wave of faith and prayer traveled throughout the crowd warming hearts and lifting spirits.                        We were happy to host our clergy and friends for lunch and welcome guests at our house as usual. We also thank God for the many spiritual graces that He showers on his faithful through the intercession of Mary, the Mother of God.

Welcome Sister Jinane!

We are extremely happy to welcome in our midst Sister Jinane Farah who was recently assigned back to the USA. Sister Jinane is a nurse who lived and worked here in North Jackson in the 1990s. In the last 13 years, Sister Jinane had taught nursing and computer classes at our technical nursing school in the Northern part of Lebanon then was ministering to the elderly and disabled in a large nursing home with over 400-bed capacity. Her gifts and experience will be a wonderful asset to our ministry here and we happy and blessed to welcome her back to our home.
