The monastery of Deir Mar Musa el Habachi
http://www.deirmarmusa.org/ is a place for hospitality, dialogue, exchange, learning and peace. It is located in the Syrian desert and host hundreds of visitors per year: pilgrims, backpackers, travelers, journalists... But also people from the local village around.
This is not a silent monastery, but a place where people can talk, exchange, share views, share meals, meet other people and get inspired by the community.
Although they are located in a remote, desert place, within a country that is not the most open on earth, they have managed to create links within and outside. Innovation, peace and happiness!
I have already visited them a couple of times and intend to contact them and inform them about evoke.
