About Our Parish
Rooted in faith since 1901, serving the Lehigh Valley with the beauty of the Maronite tradition.
Our Story
A Century of Faith
The roots of Our Lady of Lebanon trace back to 1901, when Lebanese immigrants from the village of Kfarsghab arrived in Easton, Pennsylvania, seeking a new life while holding fast to their Maronite Catholic faith.
The community first organized around St. Anthony's Church at 321 Lehigh Street. Through determination and devotion, the first Mass in their dedicated church was celebrated on April 1, 1931.
In 1969, the parish relocated to its current home at 4th and Ferry Streets. In 1978, the parish launched its beloved Lebanese Heritage Days festival, now a treasured annual tradition.
Our Mission
What We Stand For
Our Lady of Lebanon is entrusted with the guardianship of Maronite Catholics in the Lehigh Valley. Our mission is to preserve and share the faith, traditions, spirituality, liturgy, culture, and family ethics of the Maronite Catholic Rite, while welcoming all people and serving the needy with compassion.
