Amid a rocket attack launched by Hezbollah on residential homes in the village of Rmeish in southern Lebanon, more than 50 children celebrated their first Communion in a testament to faith, resilience, and hope in the midst of war.
In comments to local media, Rmeish Municipality Head Hanna Al-Amil said a missile fell between inhabited homes on Sunday morning and “narrowly avoided causing a major disaster.”
Al-Amil stressed that the village contains no military forces, armed groups, or weapons, emphasizing that residents “simply want to live safely on their land, away from confrontation and escalation.”
On Friday, several Hezbollah rockets fired toward Israeli forces operating in the town of Dibbin landed in residential and civilian areas of Marjayoun, causing significant property damage.
According to local reports, one rocket struck the Greek Orthodox Church of St. George, damaging parts of the church, while another landed within the grounds of the Sacred Hearts Secondary School...
Alam described the daily reality facing children in the village, saying they live without a sense of security or psychological stability. “My children pray and sing hymns all the time, and they live according to the news cycle.

Sorry to hear Christians are adversely affected by muslim terror weapons.
the only safe way forward is for the Iranian-sponsored terrorist gangsters to be eliminated. The Lebanese government agrees and has told Hezballah to leave but does not have the ability to enforce it. The IDF’s holding of the Beaufort peak and of course Mt. Hebron give the defense forces the eyes and ears it needs to keep watch for incoming Iranian terrorists and weapons supplies for Hezballah, also to identify where Hezballah is hiding in the hills and valleys below... so that IDF can best eliminate them.
So beautiful to see Christians maintain their faith under such trying conditions. God bless all these beautiful children.
When the Pharisees wanted to kill Jesus he fled to Sidon. When Herod
wanted to kill baby Jesus the Holy Family fled to Egypt.
God doesn’t want us to be sitting ducks. Imitate Jesus ...Get out!
