Dez. 2025 \/ 02:07 Uhr (CNA).<\/p>\n<p>Papst Leo XIV. sagte Krankenhauspatienten und Pflegekr\u00e4ften im Libanon, er sei dorthin gekommen, \u201ewo Jesus wohnt\u201c, und f\u00fcgte hinzu, dass Christus \u201ein euch, die ihr krank seid, und in euch, die ihr euch um die Leidenden k\u00fcmmert\u201c, gegenw\u00e4rtig sei. Er \u00fcberbrachte diese Botschaft w\u00e4hrend eines Besuchs am Dienstagmorgen im De La Croix Krankenhaus in Jal el Dib, einer der letzten Stationen seiner Libanonreise, w\u00e4hrend das Land weiterhin mit den Wunden von Konflikten und wirtschaftlichem Zusammenbruch k\u00e4mpft.<\/p>\n<p>Der Heilige Vater wandte sich an das Personal, die Patienten und die Franziskanerinnen vom Heiligen Kreuz, die die Einrichtung betreiben. Mit Blick auf den Gr\u00fcnder des Krankenhauses, den seligen Yaaqub El-Haddad, beschrieb Papst Leo ihn als einen \u201eunerm\u00fcdlichen Apostel der N\u00e4chstenliebe\u201c, dessen Hingabe an die Leidenden die Identit\u00e4t der Einrichtung gepr\u00e4gt habe.<\/p>\n<p>\u201eEure Anwesenheit ist ein greifbares Zeichen der barmherzigen Liebe Christi\u201c, sagte Leo zu den Mitarbeitern im Gesundheitswesen und verglich ihren Dienst mit dem des barmherzigen Samariters, der f\u00fcr den Verwundeten anhielt. Er forderte sie auf, nicht den Mut zu verlieren, wenn M\u00fcdigkeit oder Entmutigung \u00fcberhandnehmen. \u201eHaltet euch das Gute vor Augen, das ihr vollbringen k\u00f6nnt. In Gottes Augen ist es ein gro\u00dfes Werk.\u201c<\/p>\n<p>Papst Leo richtete auch einen eindringlichen Appell an die libanesische Gesellschaft. Eine Gemeinschaft, die sich nur auf Leistung und Wohlbefinden konzentriere, laufe Gefahr, ihre schw\u00e4chsten Mitglieder im Stich zu lassen, warnte er. \u201eWir k\u00f6nnen uns keine Gesellschaft vorstellen, die mit voller Geschwindigkeit voranschreitet und dabei so viele Situationen von Armut und Verletzlichkeit ignoriert.\u201c Christen, so betonte er, seien dazu berufen, die Armen zur Priorit\u00e4t zu machen, denn \u201eder Schrei der Armen\u201c, der in der gesamten Heiligen Schrift zu h\u00f6ren sei, verlange weiterhin nach einer Antwort.<\/p>\n<p>Jal el Dib, eine Stadt im libanesischen Distrikt Matn mit einer \u00fcberwiegend maronitisch-katholischen Bev\u00f6lkerung, entwickelte sich w\u00e4hrend des franz\u00f6sischen Mandats \u2013 der Zeit der franz\u00f6sischen Verwaltung, die einen Gro\u00dfteil des modernen Libanon nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg pr\u00e4gte \u2013 von einer kleinen Station aus der osmanischen \u00c4ra an der Route Beirut\u2013Tripolis zu einem Handelszentrum. In diesem Umfeld entwickelte sich die 1919 vom seligen Yaaqub gegr\u00fcndete De-La-Croix-Einrichtung zu einem der bedeutendsten Zentren der Region f\u00fcr psychiatrische Versorgung und Dienste f\u00fcr Menschen mit geistiger Behinderung. Sie wird von den Franziskanerinnen vom Heiligen Kreuz betrieben, umfasst heute f\u00fcnf Patientenpavillons und betreut jedes Jahr mehr als 2.200 Menschen.<\/p>\n<p>An die Patienten gewandt, betonte der Papst ihre W\u00fcrde und ihren Platz im Herzen Gottes. \u201eIhr seid dem Herzen Gottes, unseres Vaters, nahe. Er h\u00e4lt euch in seiner Handfl\u00e4che\u201c, sagte er. \u201eHeute wiederholt der Herr jedem von euch: \u201aIch liebe dich, ich sorge f\u00fcr dich, du bist mein Kind. Vergiss das niemals!\u2018\u201c W\u00e4hrend des Besuchs schien Leo zeitweise mit den Tr\u00e4nen zu k\u00e4mpfen.<\/p>\n<p>Nach der \u00f6ffentlichen Veranstaltung war geplant, dass Papst Leo einen der Krankenhauspavillons privat besucht, um Patienten und Mitarbeiter zu treffen.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/268195\/pope-leo-urges-lebanon-to-place-the-sick-at-the-center-of-society\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/www.catholicnewsagency.com\/news\/268195\/pope-leo-urges-lebanon-to-place-the-sick-at-the-center-of-society<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Als Teilnehmer eines p\u00e4pstlichen Konklaves verkleidete Kinder warten am 2.
