Comments

The Lebanese Maronite Order was permitted to establish in Australia by Cardinal Freeman in 1972. The first chapel and altar were dedicated and blessed shortly thereafter. The present St Charbel's Church and Monastery buildings were completed in 1978, a year after St Charbel was canonized. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited.
