"Keep praying for Lebanon; pray for our brothers and sisters. When we pray, at least we tell them: You're not alone. We feel with you, and we ask God to help you, as well. Lebanon is important because if we lose the Christians of Lebanon, we could lose Christianity in the Middle East. That's the only haven; they're the only country in the Middle East where Christians have a voice, and that's why Lebanon has that mission."
