Faith Doctrine and Church Traditions

Media of the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC)

The Virgin Mary, Mother of God, Mother of Life, and Queen of Peace, is the Daughter of the Father, Mother of the Son, and Spouse of the Holy Spirit. She is the source of all hope and consolation. Churches dedicate fasts, Prayers, and glorifications to honor her and proclaim the sanctity of her glory, for through her the Father's plan of salvation was fulfilled.

With the Mother of God and Mother of Light, the mystery of the infinite greatness of divine love is revealed and embodied in her repose and transition to the heavenly temple, body and soul, so that the work of divine redemption could be fully accomplished in her. According to Church tradition, the Virgin Mary was not subject to the law of remaining in the corruption of the grave, but rather ascended to the glory of the Heavenly Father, crowned by the angels as Queen on the heavenly throne.

Its General Secretary and Executive Director Dr. Mike Bassous in the "Ecumenical Horizons" Program Produced by MECC:

"The Word of God belongs to everyone and it is what unites us... The Ecumenical journey is essential for the Church's presence in the Middle East"

Since its founding, the Bible Society has sought to strengthen the Ecumenical spirit and work to spread the message and culture of the Bible to all generations. This is achieved through partnerships with all Churches and Christian institutions, supporting the Bible and advocating for its cause to uphold human dignity, encouraging reading and interacting with the Word of God, as well as translating and spreading the Bible through print, audio visual, and digital media.

This year, the Bible Society celebrates its Diamond Jubilee, carrying within its vision more hope and cooperation with Churches and Church and Ecumenical organizations in order to meet the various needs of communities through the powerful Word of God.

In a special interview within the "Ecumenical Horizons" program, produced by the “Platform of the Word” at the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC), the Secretary General and Executive Director of the Bible Society Dr. Mike Bassous highlighted the series of activities that the Society will implement to mark its Diamond Jubilee, emphasizing the importance of spreading the Word of God throughout the world.

On their World Day, A Greeting of love and hope to all the Youth of the World!

Media of the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC)

A cry of love, fraternity, and peace... a cry of hope and faith... a cry of heavenly joy reflected by hundreds of thousands of young people who flocked from all corners of the earth to the city of Rome, carrying in their hearts much hope and life. They came as apostles of Christ from various countries and communities to unite in Prayer, live hope, and affirm with one spirit that what unites them is one name, the name of Jesus Christ.

The eyes of the entire world have recently turned to Rome, which witnessed an international Church event manifested in the Youth Jubilee within the framework of the Catholic Church's Jubilee Year. The Jubilee was not merely a global youth gathering, but rather an oasis of Prayer, faith, and fraternity embodied in various spiritual celebrations and Prayers.

The meeting culminated in the words of His Holiness Pope Leo XIV, who called on youth to be light, hope, and witnesses of Christ's peace and reconciliation, asking them to spread their enthusiasm and witness of faith.

*Home care services are available at reasonable and discounted prices.

Stemming from its belief in the importance of serving with dignity, the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC) launched a new platform for homecare services in Lebanon, enabling service seekers to identify certified caregivers who have undergone extensive health training with Saint George Hospital University Medical Center (Beirut, Mount Lebanon, and Tripoli) and Khoury General Hospital (Zahle, Lebanon). Hence, the platform offers a variety of home services related to elderly care, mothers and newborn care, as well as babysitting and childcare.
