Description
On this 19th march, Palm Sunday, in the St. Basil's Parish, the parish priest Fr. George Khoury gave to me the title of "well deserving parishioner" (in portuguese "paroquiano benemérito") of the community, recognizing my activities in sake of the Melkite Church in Brazil. In this way, Fr. George thanked one more time the Gebara's family for its dedication, especially my grandfather, Roland, who has already received that title and who became very proud of me.

The text of the diplom:

"A Paróquia de São Basílio, reconhecendo seus relevantes serviços prestados a esta Paróquia, concede o TÍTULO DE BENEMÉRITO desta Comunidade Religiosa do Rio de Janeiro a Philippe Alcantara Gebara Tavares incorporando-o à galeria dos seus renomados e abnegados paroquianos.

Padre George Khoury
Pároco"
