Dear Brother Priests. Deacons/Subdeacons. Consecrated Men and Women:

Over the weekend we received the sad news of the passing of Estephan El Tabchi, the father of Fr. Andrawos El Tabchi, who died on December 13th, 2024, at the age of 72.

He leaves behind his wife Raymona Al Amoud and his four children: Fr. Andrawos, Fares, Mariane, and Michael Daniel, along with his three sisters Loulou, Zeina, and Mona.

Unfortunately, Fr. Andrawos was not able to travel to Lebanon for his funeral which took place in Batroun, Lebanon on Saturday December 14, 2024.

On behalf of the Eparchy of Saint Maron, Clergy, Religious and Laity, we extend to Fr. Andrawos and his family our condolences, and promise of prayer.

May God’s servant Estephan rest in peace.

Sincerely yours in Christ,
+ Gregory J. Mansour
