Some have returned after the truce, despite the high tension and the fact that heavy bombardments often still occur near the border. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Few have never left and can tell what happened here. <\/strong>Like Haziz, who stayed to watch over his family homes and olive trees while his wife and children sought refuge with relatives in Beirut. \u201cAt that time,\u201d Haziz recalls, \u201c<strong>it felt like there was always an earthquake<\/strong>, bombs fell day and night, and the ground shook constantly.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n<p>We are in <strong>Sarba<\/strong>, a Christian village of 3,000 souls, in the mountains above Sidon. Isolated during the bombings, today the village is coming back to life also thanks to the Sarba Cultural House, which carries out a very special activity. \u201cHere,\u201d Mona, the center\u2019s director, explains to us, \u201cwe have been teaching Italian for some years now, and many children practically speak it. In the years before the war, we also prepared theatrical performances, <strong>performing Dante and Pirandello<\/strong>!\u201d   <\/p>\n\n<p>The unusual activity was promoted by Mona, who teaches Italian at the university in Beirut. Given that there were few extracurricular activities in the village, she decided to start these courses in three spare rooms under her house. \u201cAnd Italian is useful,\u201d Mona continues, <strong>\u201cfor when we finally start having tourists again.\u201d<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n<p>In the past four years, the center has adapted to the needs caused by the crisis and now also provides <strong>school catch-up courses<\/strong> for the whole village, because lessons take place only four days a week due to terrible inflation: \u201ctransport costs are still too high, and we had to reduce hours because teachers and students could not afford to attend lessons every day!\u201d <strong>Pro Terra Sancta plans to support school courses in Sarba<\/strong> and other small initiatives, including the opening of a medical dispensary.<\/p>\n\n<p>But the surprises don\u2019t end here: while visiting the village, we are led to a field where, at one point, we discover an <strong>entrance to a small cave<\/strong>. \u201cHere,\u201d the mayor of Sarba tells us, \u201cone day a farmer was digging to plant a fruit tree and discovered this cave, which apparently contains a<strong> complex of tombs, possibly Roman<\/strong>.\u201d <\/p>\n\n<p>Inside, in addition to the tombs, there are also ancient bone remains. Pro Terra Sancta is evaluating supporting an <strong>intervention to recover and preserve the archaeological, cultural, and natural heritage, <\/strong>as it already does in northern Lebanon: in the Tripoli area, the association, in collaboration with various partners, carries out a natural heritage recovery project promoted by the Italian Agency for Cooperation (AICS). <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2880\" height=\"2160\" src=\"https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_9553-edited-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Reportage Lebanon: The Excavations of Sarba\" class=\"wp-image-229342\" srcset=\"https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_9553-edited-scaled.jpg 2880w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_9553-edited-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_9553-edited-1000x750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_9553-edited-240x180.jpg 240w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_9553-edited-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_9553-edited-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_9553-edited-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2880px) 100vw, 2880px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>In addition to the cultural and natural heritage recovery project that began this summer,<strong> in Tripoli <\/strong>extracurricular proposals for music and sports continue, as well as activities of <strong>the medical dispensary,<\/strong> which, in addition to distributing medicines that are hard to find elsewhere, is able to provide at least 15,000 visits per year.<\/p>\n\n<p>In Beirut, the last stop of our visit, the distribution of medicines continues to be a fundamental element, and here too Pro Terra Sancta has set up a medical dispensary where it is expected to guarantee at least 12,000 visits per year. \u201cThis dispensary,\u201d Bashar tells us, \u201cis a guarantee because here I know I can find medicines that I cannot get elsewhere in Beirut or because I could not afford even an aspirin with my four jobs given the prices.\u201d<br\/>The distribution of medicines is not completely free: \u201cWe ask people,\u201d explains Stephanie, the pharmacist, \u201cto pay a small percentage of the medicines they purchase. Even a minimal percentage is important to avoid falling into charity dependency and to encourage project sustainability. In reality, people often feel better paying something because asking for help can be humiliating.\u201d    <\/p>\n\n<p>Josette, who is here to collect medicine for her mother, confirms this. \u201cI\u2019ve always done well,\u201d she explains, \u201cI had a bridal shop with my sister. But with the 2019 crisis, I lost everything, and now I manage with various jobs. I never wanted to ask anyone for help; it has not been easy for me to turn to you, but I had no choice.\u201d  <\/p>\n\n<p>In the corridor next to the dispensary, a dozen mothers sit with their children at the Franciscan Care Center, waiting for their turn for a session with psychologists and educators, who meet the girls and boys daily for individual psychotherapy sessions, speech therapy, or group art therapy activities. Among the children is Teo, 8 years old, who has difficulty speaking. <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20250930_171156-1000x750.jpg\" alt=\"Reportage Lebanon: pss in Beirut\" class=\"wp-image-229332\" style=\"width:840px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20250930_171156-1000x750.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20250930_171156-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20250930_171156-240x180.jpg 240w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20250930_171156-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20250930_171156-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/preprod.proterrasancta.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_20250930_171156-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Teo during a play-based session<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>During a play-based session, Teo has to recognize and retrieve letters of the alphabet hidden under boxes and cones. <strong>Each letter is an important achievement for him, <\/strong>and he proudly shows it every time he finds one.
