St. Ilige LF Martyrs Mass, September 21, 2003

It
was an enormous event, the guys were up all night organizing,
cleaning and preparing the place for this great mass.
Hundreds of buses from all regions of Lebanon went early
in the morning to Mayfouk.
Army
check points stopped every bus and tore all the pictures
of Bashir and Hakim and then took away LF flags. Still,
most of the people managed to get there on time.

The Place was crowded, the mass started at 11am then the
priest gave a speech reminding us that our cause is not
attached to individuals, that we must not use our Martyrs
for political purposes, and that we should pray everyday
for our martyrs and not once a year. After the speech
our comrad in the Lebanese Forces, Simon Msallim, (min
el Jabal) gave a speech in the name of the LF and was
heavily applauded by the thousands of individuals present
up there. This mass was the last mass in the trinity of
masses that happened in Lebanon this month. It was a great
ending to a very busy month filled with LF masses world
wide. Thank you to everyone who participated in the events
and espcially to all the LF comrads who helped organized
these great events.
