Tout sur l'actualité de Easter sur Libnanews, Le Média Citoyen du Liban

The director of the Catholic Media Centre, Father Abdo Abu Kassem, has announced that the churches will remain open to 30% of their capacity during the Easter holidays, in line with the decision of the High Security Council to grant a waiver to these during the three-day confinement period decided yesterday. Churches will be able to open their doors to celebrate Palm Sunday Mass, Good Friday Mass and Easter Mass "in a brief manner," he said. However, it will be a question of respecting the measures of social distance, with the wearing of the mask, but also of limiting the number of people attending to it to 30% in relation to the capacity. He also said that the Masses could also be broadcast on social networks or televisions such as Noursat, Tele Lumière and Charity Tv. The religious leader recalls that it is also a question of limiting family reunions and respecting in each household the preventive measures necessary to control the epidemic, as well as to get vaccinated to allow a return to normal life. As a reminder, the Lebanese authorities decided yesterday to extend for another 6 months, the general mobilization measures in the face of the COVID19 epidemic in Lebanon.
