20,000 Christians in Australia gather for historic St Charbel moment

More than 20,000 Christians in Australia gathered in Sydney to witness history as the world’s largest monumental bronze sculpture of St Charbel was installed atop St Charbel’s Monastery. Led by the Maronite bishop and the monks of the monastery, a solemn Eucharistic procession moved through the streets. More than 150 pallbearers carried the bronze face of the saint, surrounded by thousands of faithful forming a chalice-shaped procession — marking not just the arrival of a sculpture, but a public declaration of faith. This historic night fell on the 33rd anniversary of the miracle of Nohad Chami and forms part of the spiritual lead-up to a major global milestone , the 50th anniversary of St Charbel’s canonisation next year. Special thanks to @truelenscreative for capturing this historic moment on film, to @bakhosmoussaphotography for the powerful photography throughout the night, and to @adellabeaini for the coordination and writing that helped bring this story together.
