Churches and Monasteries of the Khazen Family: Mar Mikhail Church in Saki-Rechmayya (Jbeil)
Written by Najib

 

In the early 19th century, Cheikh Farjan Abboud el Khazen, from the house of Cheikh Abou Nawfal el Khazen from Ajaltoun, inaugurated the Mar Mikhail Church in Saki-Rechmayya. After both him and his wife passed away, the church was put under the supervision of Cheikh Haidar and Cheikh Rameh Hend el Khazen, who are the grandchildren of  Cheikh Rameh el Khazen. Nowdays, the Church is managed by Cheikh Haidar Ragheb el Khazen.
