Celebrating the Birthday of Saint Sharbel at Our Lady of Lebanon, DC, May 2026

​On Sunday, May 17, 2026, the Family of Saint Sharbel USA sponsored a luncheon at Our Lady of Lebanon, DC, in celebration of the birthday of Saint Sharbel. The day began with the Divine Liturgy at 11:00 AM, gathering the faithful in prayer and thanksgiving.

After the Liturgy, parishioners, families, and friends were invited to the Our Lady of Lebanon Parish Hall for a luncheon at 12:30 PM, where they shared a meal in a warm spirit of fellowship.

This gathering was a meaningful expression of the mission of the Family of Saint Sharbel: to help make Saint Sharbel better known, to deepen devotion to him, and to bring people together around his life of prayer, humility, silence, and holiness.

​Around the tables, the celebration became more than a meal. It was an opportunity to strengthen community, share faith, and keep alive the memory of a saint whose life continues to speak to many people today.

​Moments like these remind us that devotion to Saint Sharbel is lived not only in prayer but also in communion, service, and shared love within the Church.
