Saint Charbel's rosary: mysteries and prayer guide

A rosary rooted in Eastern spiritualityThe Saint Charbel rosary is a meditative prayer inspired by both the Maronite Catholic tradition and popular Lebanese devotion. It is not simply a question of repeating prayers, but of entering into a silent heart-to-heart with God, in the school of a holy hermit who offered everything in silence.This rosary is distinguished by its particular structure: it is often composed of five decades, but the prayers that accompany it are not necessarily the same as those of the classic Marian rosary. The spirit of this rosary is profoundly contemplative. Each bead becomes an invitation to inner union, in peace, humility, and abandonment to God. Read more...

Why does Saint Charbel attract so many followers from all over the world?

A universal saint, rooted in a landSt Charbel was born in the mountains of Lebanon in the 19th century, in a region marked by piety, Maronite traditions and a deep love of silence. And yet, despite this very local origin, today he is one of the most prayed-for saints in the world. Churches are dedicated to him well beyond Lebanon: in Mexico, France, Australia, Argentina, Canada... This global reach is surprising, but it can be explained. Read more...

The story of Saint Charbel: a Maronite monk in the heart of the Lebanese mountains

A child of Lebanon, marked by faithBorn in 1828 in the small village of Bekaa Kafra in northern Lebanon, Youssef Antoun Makhlouf grew up in a deeply religious Maronite Christian family. Orphaned at a very young age, he was brought up by his mother, who passed on to him a simple and robust faith. From an early age, Youssef was drawn to a life of prayer and solitude. He spent hours in a cave not far from his home, transformed into a small hermitage, where he meditated and prayed far from the tumult of the world.At the age of 23, he left everything to enter the monastery of Notre-Dame de Mayfouq, then the monastery of Saint Maron in Annaya, where he took the name Brother Charbel, in homage to a martyr of the ancient Church. He was ordained a priest in 1859. Read more...
