Welcome to Our Lady of Lebanon, Harris Park


A Word from the Parish Priest

Dear Parishioners,

Our Lady of Lebanon is a dynamic and active parish. We are blessed to have many liturgical celebrations as well as the following – Childrens’ Sunday Liturgy, Fersan Classes, Childrens’ Arabic language classes, Marriage Preparation Sessions, Family Days, Seniors Days and events for People with Disability (Faith & Light), the Teens Group (13-18 yo’s), Youth Committees - MYO & MAM (18-30 yo’s), Faith and Bible Discussion Nights, Adoration Prayer groups, Sodality, the Ladies Committee, Five Choirs, the Youth Counselling Services, as well as the Family & Adult Counselling Services and the Maronite Natural Family Planning Services.

Our current facilities under the Hall and in the former Hostel have become very inadequate to serve the growing needs of these different parish groups.

As we celebrate the wonderful Birth of the Lord, it is fitting to announce the birth of a new and wonderful project, a new stage in our Parish, to serve these growing needs of our Parish for many years ahead. This Project is the New Our Lady of Lebanon Parish, Community and Youth Centre to be situated on the property of the flats and shops with demolition and construction set to commence in March 2009.

For more details on the New Centre and to offer feedback or contributions, please do not hesitate to contact me or any other Priest at the Parish Office.

Yours in Christ
Msgr Shora Maree

Daily Prayer

I arise with amazement at the presence of the Holy One. I arise with gratitude for life. I arise with hope that all shall be well. I arise with courage to meet what will be difficult. I arise with conviction to do what is life-giving. I arise with eyes ever alert for beauty. I arise with openness to greater truth. I arise with desire for continued transformation.
