Shafik Farah when he first came to Canada from Jordan two years ago. The word was budget. Farah had years of experience to offer a Canadian church â€" in the ecumenical movement, in Christian education, and as an ordained minister since 1953. 7 One of the projects' for which there was no money was a centre for the mentally retarded. Christianity '3 struggle - more than religion His last posting, before leaving Jordan. was at the Church of the Redeemer in Amman, the largest in the Middle East. Over and over he was assured there was work to be done, but “the budget" couldn‘t fit him in. “In the Middle East when there is no money,” said Rev. Farah, “we say this has to be done and we go ahead and the money comes.” Xtrthre time, Farah was fninister at All Saints Anglican Church in Beirut, Lebanon. Today, St. Luké‘s Centre for Mentally Retarded children occupies a modern church-owned building. 'After 1948, with the upsurge of Zionism and the takeover of Palestine to create the new state of Israel, the Christians were “pushed out“ and the church leaders scattered. _ , “It took 10 years to regam strength." said Farah. A new church headquarters was established in Beirut, Lebanon and today there are 15 Anglican parishes in 5 church districts â€" Egypt, Jordan, Sudan. Lebanon and Syria â€" all directly responsible to Canterbury "_T1iévééhtre was started in'a rented building and the money came in. _. . . . n.- Rev. Farah also actively participated in the creation of a hospital, three high schools and centres for the deaf and the aged. The The Palestinian native, born in 1923 about seven miles from Nazareth, was speaking recently to an overflowing congregation at Holy Trinity Anglican Church. “(Skidarhriivas the first to help. The Anglican Church Women in Beirut provided the fu_r_nishi‘rigs.“ ‘ “Jerusalem, Antioch, Alexandria, Rome and Constantinople were the main Christian centres until the 12th century." recounted the minister. Split develops ~ When a liturgical split developed between the Christian church in Rome and Constantinople, the areas east and south of the Mediterranean remained under Constantinople’s eastern orthodox influence. Speaking in clear, precise English, Farah outlined the history of Christianity in the Middle_East. The language in. that part of the world became Arabic after the seventh century Islamic invasion and the creation of Islamic empires. 7 ‘ “Under Turkish rule, the Christian church became so involved in civil affairs it lost sight of its purpose," Farah said. “They brought everything with them but the gospel." contended Farah. War was the order of the day. During the 16th century Reformation period “the church again woke up to its mission in the world.” In 1841, the first Anglican bishop was sent to help the struggling Christian churches in the Middle East. Denomination created “Although it was not the intention to create another Christian denomination in the Middle East, it hap- pened." The crusades from England during the 14th cen- tury. ostensibly to free the Holy Land from non- Christians, were no help I The Anglican Church established church, school and hospital facilities in Egypt and Palesting “Befoi‘e you got your mevdiéine," laughed Farah, “you had to take a little religion."

Perhaps on the west bank, which is still under occupation." ' During questioning by the congregation, Farah was asked if there was not a similarity between the situations in Ireland with the Protestant-Catholic strife, and Lebanon where there is conflict between Moslems and Christians. “I‘m not exempting Christians, but there’s more to it than that," he replied. “It is a political, social and economic probleml“ “Most rightists are Christian and well-to~do. Most Moslems are leftist and not as well off.“ No benefits from oil Explaining that only about 10 per cent of the total population in the Middle East is Christian, Farah said the church does not benefit from oil revenues. “Most of the revenue goes back to the major oil- buying countries. such as the United States and [Theme to purehase weapons."
