The Myrrh-Bearers Society

• A word has reached us from Miss Lea Yanni praising the efforts being made by the Myrrh-Bearers Society in Souk el-Gharb.

This society was founded in 1919 under the presidency of Mrs. Labiba Atiyya al-Souqi. The society's aim is to assist the needy among families of modest means.

As for the society's finances, they come from the proceeds of parties and charity bazaars, from donations and subscriptions, and the like.

Miss Yanni praised the complete spirit of love and understanding among all the members of the society, who work hand in hand in everything that redounds to the good of this society.

God bless the hands that labor for good, and the great souls that were created to give.
