Common life  At the end of our experience in Lebanon, before we will share some of our very special last experiences with you, and before we will try to summarise what we lived for you, we do not want to end this blog without showing you some of the basics of our daily life here in Lebanon. So far, we have explained you a lot about our daily meetings, our travels, and our work. But of course, also our daily life here, together as a group of three, was a very important aspect of our experience during this month. Strangers? Don't know such a thing. Before we met each other on the airport of Istanbul on the way to Beirut, we did not all know each other personally. But we did not need long time to get along with each other. Instead, we have the impression that from the first moment on, we were friends. There was never a doubt about that: We are friends. Of course, each of us had easier and more difficult days in Lebanon, and of course we also lived moments of tiredness, someti

Launching our activities... The last days, we have spent a lot of time preparing and planning: On the one hand, as you will read below, the refugee children we will help to take care of will arrive tomorrow morning. On the other hand, we are searching for opportunities to get to know young people and their spirituality, and - maybe - to pray with them. Fratelli  So far, we have spent our mornings at the Fratelli's Association preparing the program as well as the school building for the arrival of 450 refugee children. These children come from Syria, Jordan or Iraq and live in an around Rhmeileh now. Often, they have survived horrifying traumatic events. But - maybe even worse - in many cases, it is very difficult for them to regain strength or to overcome those experiences well because those who could help them cope - family members or caretakers - themselves are strongly traumathised or have died. This is why the brothers and team members of the Fratelli Association consider
