Liturgical Postures

Why do we extend our arms when praying the Our Father and at other times during the Maronite anaphora?

Why do we stand in the Maronite Liturgy of the Offering?

‘In the chaste womb of the river recognize the Daughter of man, who conceived without knowing man and gave birth without the seed of man. By grace she formed the Lord of grace.’ St Ephrem #harissa #ourlady #maronite #livingmaronite #lebanon #livelovebeirut #jounieh Photo taken by @dibbyboom
Meanwhile on the other side of the world.... Tonight we watched Capharnaum which premiered as part of the Lebanese Film Festival in Sydney. This movie is moving and intense. It explores poverty, exploitation, neglect and the lives of those at the margins. It is an incredible movie. If your in Sydney we really encourage you to go and check out the Lebanese Film Festival and in particular the movies - The Insult and Capharnaum. @lffau #capharnaum #livingmaronite #maronite #theinsult
Our very own Emily with our Patriarch. Such a blessing. #psmym2018 #livingmaronite #patriarchrai #maronite
Today we pray for our brothers and sisters in Kerala, who are experiencing horrific monsoon flooding with 320 dead and the toll still rising. Kerala is also home to St Thomas Christians, an ancient Christian community that was established by St Thomas the apostle. They are also a Syriac community and one of the closest in Rite to the Maronites. Keep them in your prayers. #maronite #livingmaronite #stthomaschristians #kerala #syriac
The first day of the Maronite Youth Pre Synod saw an offical opening with a representative of the Vatican, talks, group discussion, adoration and confessions. Keep them in your prayers. #psmym2018 #livingmaronite #maronite #catholicyouth #adoration
Our very own Emily has checked in for the beginning of the Maronite Youth Synod with our Patriarch. Keep all those attending in your prayers and follow our Instagram story for updates. #maronite #livingmaronite #patriarch #youth #catholic #patriarchrai
