FOR/AGAINST the monks at Deir Mar Charbel, Jieh.
Abou Jamra's Journal entry for May 28th, 2007
I walked up to the cemetery, past the first gate and into the second. First thing that came to mind is what do those monks do inside the monastery? Do they play play station or something? Why can’t they maintain the cemetery? What cant they water the garden? What cant they fertilize the grass, the trees and the plants? Why can’t they sweep the cemetery grounds?
- AJ displays his disapproval of the job the monks are doing (or lack thereof) at St Charbel Monastery, Jieh.
Abou Jamra - June 2007
- AJ endorses a massive petition to call for the abolishment of the allocation of a new parish priest by Bishop Elias Nassar, so that the 60 year relationship between the monks of the St Charbel Monastery would be maintained and upheld..

So what is it? Are you for or against the monks? Do you now believe they are doing their job, or do you have something else in mind...?
