The Platform of the Word at the Middle East Council of Churches Lights Its First Annual Candle
With great joy and hope, “The Platform of the Word” at the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC) lights its first annual candle, carrying with it the voice of humanity and the issues of society. It seeks to form an interactive space and a platform aimed at promoting human values and strengthening a culture of love, peace, and fraternity.
Under the supervision and guidance of the MECC Secretary General Professor Michel Abs, “The Platform of the Word,” since its launch in 2025, has presented a diverse network of cultural and social programs, as well as lectures, roundtables, and various forms of media production. It strives to shed light on issues and initiatives that aim to preserve human rights and the dignity.
The platform also serves as a space that highlights the mission of the Middle East Council of Churches, along with its various fields of work on the Theological, Ecumenical, humanitarian, social, relief, and media fields.
MECC is also working on preparing new programs and media materials that keep pace with the Church and social developments in the region, so that it may be a voice crying out in the wilderness and an intellectual oasis for encounter, solidarity, and mutual support.
