Maronite Patriarch, Bechara Boutros Rahi, presided over Sunday Mass service in Bkerki this morning.

In his sermon, the Patriarch indicated that people should not end up being victims of the problems between the political class and banks.

"People need salvation, not the opposite. All the current economic and health conditions prove this," he said.

Rahi also called for solidarity to help the government overcome this ordeal.
