Saint Charbel — The Lebanese Saint of Miracles
-
Narrated by:

By:
Born in a mountain village in Lebanon in 1828, Saint Charbel spent his life seeking silence.
At twenty-three, he left his family behind and entered a Maronite monastery. For decades he lived in prayer, fasting, solitude, and contemplation, eventually becoming a hermit in the hills above the Mediterranean.
When he died on Christmas Eve in 1898, his story should have ended.
Instead, it began.
Reports emerged of mysterious lights surrounding his tomb. When monks opened his grave, they found his body remarkably preserved and said it was exuding blood and water. Over the decades that followed, thousands of healings and miracles would be attributed to his intercession.
Today, Saint Charbel is one of the most beloved saints of the Middle East, revered by Christians and respected by many Muslims.
This is the extraordinary story of the Lebanese hermit whose influence only grew after death.
