+++ Supporting the „Syriac Summer School and the Summer Camp“ in Aleppo +++

In the midst of the war in Syria, the Archdiocese of Aleppo organized this year for the first time after seven years, a Syriac summer club as well as summer camps, (The Syriac Club of Aleppo), that included spiritual entertainment and social activities. Between 19th June and 6th August 2017, the summer club was held in the Syriac committee in Aleppo. It included about 400 children and young people between 5 and 16 years old. It was staffed by a group of 55 young people with experience in Christian education and educational education.

The summer club was held in two branches and the program was varied among several topics: religious-social-moral education courses, external social initiatives, recreational activities, visiting the orphanage, the children’s hospital with cancer and the elderly people, order of prayer for the return of the bishops and all the abductees, cultivation of plants and flowers in the monastery of the monastery of St. Peter and the garden of St. George’s Church, etc. The Holy Mass in the Syriac Orthodox Church took place every week, which all the participants joined together.

The closing ceremony of the summer club was a Concert, which was attended by more than 700 people from officials, religious and community leaders and parents of children. At the end of the ceremony, everyone was invited to attend the handicraft exhibition, which was made by the club members during the month and a half.

The Archdiocese of Aleppo asked in the Spring of 2017 We Are Christians for help to secure the amount of the project expenses.
On behalf of the young people and mentors of the Syriac summer club and the members of the Syriac camps in Aleppo, Ver. Rev. Fr. Boutros Kassis, Patriarchal Delegate of the Archdiocese of Aleppo, thanked We Are Christians Organization deeply for the generous financial support.

May God bless the Syriac-Aramean youth in Aleppo for their hard work.
