“Beit Rafqa” Welcomes Women from the Inner Wheel Association

Within the ongoing activities that are held at “Beit Rafqa”, a delegation of women from the Inner Wheel Association of the Rotary Club of Lebanon visited the elderly on December 5th, 2017.
The delegation was welcomed by Mother Superior of the Monastery of St. Joseph Jrebta, located alongside St. Rafqa Shrine, Sister Melanie Maksoud, the General Manager of Beit Rafqa, Elie Abu Yaghi and a number of employees.
It was an occasion for the women of the association to celebrate Christmas with the elderly. They exchanged conversations and took pictures with them around the Christmas tree in a very beautiful and loving atmosphere.
The Inner Wheel Association expressed the great joy the felt during this visit through a tweet in which they wrote: "It is nice to give something for someone who asks you for it, but it is even nicer to give something for someone, without them asking, but because you simply know their need."
