Back in September, we
that the Maronite Academy is offering Lebanese Christians living abroad the opportunity to experience Lebanon for 2 weeks. This year, 39 people with Lebanese heritage have been selected to attend the Maronite Academy.
All their costs will be covered, including their round-trip flights, accommodation, food, transportation and all the tourist/religious/entertainment spots that are part of the program, and transportation. For most, it will be the first time they visit Lebanon. Many of whom come from families who haven’t had a connection to Lebanon for generations. But yet, still have an eager desire to reconnect to Lebanon.
