On the occasion of the Glorious Christmas, “The Platform of the Word” at the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC) presents a special Christmas episode entitled "We are awake... Waiting for Our Return", from the Church of Our Lady of Amchit in Lebanon. Guests were the Parish Priest Father Charbel Al Khoury and the Secretary General of the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC) Professor Dr. Michel Abs. They were interviewed by the Journalist Lea Adel Maamary, the Director of "The Platform of the Word" and the Coordinator of Church and Media Relations at the Middle East Council of Churches (MECC).

The episode centered around Christmas topics, as well as about human and social, existential issues.

It carries many messages confirming that the Light of Christ is the only one who illuminates the darkness of the earth.
