5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. 7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. 9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. 14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: 15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. 16 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face; 18 That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.

Tele Lumiere & Noursat
Tele Lumiere and Noursat programs are the fruits that show the tree; they focus on one program and goal: the human being of all classes, ages, locations and levels.
Tele Lumiere & Noursat does not content with programs limited in a certain frame, but rather struggles with men for the sake of their human rights; it highlights the plights they go through, then takes initiatives and leads campaigns to attain peace and justice and teach the sons of the earth to implement the values of heaven.
The Programs are rich and open to all religions; they reflect the conviction of station’s supervisors that love is built on knowledge, and immunize men against rigor, angor and isolation. Tele Lumiere and Noursat believe that the land, every land, is sacred, especially the land that has signs of belief. That is the reason why one of its first priorities is the programs that consolidate the relationship between the people of this East with their land and the symbols of their faith. About 80% of the programs are produced internally, ranging from spiritual guidance, documentaries, lives of saints, religious education, testimonies, social and religious programs, daily Masses, debates that deal with the cultural, social, educational, spiritual and many other aspects of life, in addition to the coverage of the local and international Church news. Tele Lumiere & Noursat produced programs to fight violence, abortion, pornography and the death penalty and some of them win international awards under the auspices of the United Nations.
