The Discalced Carmelites of Tripoli and the Monastery of St. Francis, the Pro Terra Sancta Association, the Religion and Security Council, the Life and Reconciliation Association, the Adyan Foundation, the Network of Religious Leaders of Tripoli and Northern Lebanon organized an interreligious meeting on the premises of the Saint Elijah School of the Carmelites. The title of the meeting was: \u00abInterreligious dialogue and initiative of human brotherhood. Learning it and putting it into practice\u00bb. The meeting was inspired by the document \u00abHuman Fraternity for Peace in the World and Living Together\u00bb signed by Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Sheikh Ahmad Al-Tayyeb, on the occasion of the 800th anniversary of the meeting between St. Francis of Assisi and Sultan Al-Malik Al-Kamil.<\/p>\n

The meeting included testimonies from lay and religious leaders and meant to promote education for interreligious dialogue and peace, as well as sensitizing the younger generations to the principles and teachings of the document on \u00abHuman Fraternity\u00bb.<\/p>\n

In her speech, the director of the school, Mrs. Rita Salama Faisal, stressed the importance of this meeting and its impact on young people, highlighting that the Carmelites\u2019 St. Elijah school is a good example of coexistence and openness to others. She also called for the renewal of such an initiative.<\/p>\n
