Dear Lebanon Explorers
It's the perfect ⏱️ time of the year to give and help draw a 🥳 smile on children’s faces.
So mark it on your calendar: this December 21 a charity 🕊 event will take place at Mechhellene and we will be hiking at Abaydat – Sakyet El-Khayt to 💪 support “Monks of the brothers and Nuns of the sisters of Jesus crucified” in their mission.
"رهبان اخوة الصليب و راهبات أخوات يسوع المصلوب"
They are taking 🙏 care of abandoned 👶 babies/newborns found on their doors and every step every backing will help them. They bear seeds of authentic faith and live that faith through prayer and asceticism; they have led a committed community life of brotherly ❤️ love deep-rooted in individual 🙏 prayers and work hard with their hands.
All the proceeds will go to the 💒 convent.

📜 DESCRIPTION OF THE EVENT:
========================
This 🚶 hike from “Abaydat” to “Sakiet el Khait” is different. It is located in the North of Lebanon in Jbeil area and it is one of the highlights of 🏺 ancient caves in Lebanon where you can take a lot of unforgettable 📷 pictures.
It is believed that some of these caves-churches are aged between 1000 to 2000 years old. You reach these churches by climbing 🪜 steel stairs because they are carved high in the rocks.
🌿🥾 HIKING LEVEL.1 to 3 for easy 4 to 6 for intermediate 7 to 9 for strenuous
The hike will be divided into two levels:
🥇 Our first level 4 is intermediate. It is a beautiful 🍂🍁🍂 trail and it is an amazing Phoenician walking path of just 7 KM. You will visit the cave of Mar Semaan; one of Mar Maroun's followers. These caves are very ⚱️old and date for more than a thousand years. There are residues of frescos painted on the inner walls.
The stunning ⛰mountainous landscape with trees seemingly defying gravity and growing on extremely vertical slopes is impressive.
🥈 Level 5 will continue to the cave church of Mar Antonios with 4 floors in the cliff dating around 600 years old. It is a steep downhill walk to the church. You will return back on the same route to meet Level 4 and walk along track rich in beautiful 🍂🍁🍂 views and you will have a picnic 🍞 lunch under huge 🌳oak trees beside St. Peter and Paul Church.
Later on you will visit “Mar Takla” a historical church in “Shamat” village built in the Second Century B.C. from the remains of 🏛 Roman ruins.
Diversified? Yes!!!!! The hidden treasures and beauty of Lebanon are yet to be discovered
