My grandfather was from Homms. He recently passed away and never have I seen Homms mentioned in any YouTube video I’ve come across. I am in tears thank you for this video. Homms truly makes the most amazing souls to walk this earth. Those ladies seemed so kind. I pray one day I can see my grandfathers home. He was a carpenter, he was Christian and the best person I’ve ever known. God bless Syria 🙏🏼 always in my prayers

I am from Kerala India and my community is called Syrian Christians. The Syrian Christian church in Kerala is as old as 2000 years. Apostle Thomas came and preached here and was martyred in India. We are called Syrian Christians because the bishops of our church were ordained by bishops from Antioch, Syria, where the early church was based, according to Acts of the Apostles.

There is something very touching about receiving and enjoying simple food from time to time. Each day God gives us what we need and there is so much to love Him for ⛪️

This is just lovely. The people in the monastery have the true hearts of servants, for their fellow humans.

I enjoyed the tour. You have to realize that everything got there by hand carry, or small carts... From the original construction, renovations, appliances, tables, books, etc. I'm sure Mark helped them out with a nice donation.

I was there in 2006 during Lebanon war as many Lebanese were in Syria and my guide took me here. So glad to know this place still exist. It is a Jesuit church. You miss showing the fresco on the wall how it reflects the first level of hell is for religious leaders. That really etched into my mind. Fr. Paul used to gave a resource center at the basement full of literature on Christianity and Islam and he also organised dialogues between these two religious. Visitors are advised to bring some fresh fruits or vegetables to the monastery.
