Father Guilherme, an internationally known priest, held a concert with the house closed in a club in Beirut, after officiating a religious service. The event was marked by lights and electronic music, and Father Guilherme stated that music is a tool of praise to God.


The concert, part of a modern evangelization initiative, attracted young people from all over the world, but also generated controversy, with religious leaders calling for its ban. The request was rejected by judges, and the organizers imposed strict rules, including the prohibition of religious symbols. Despite the criticism, the concert was perceived by many as a message of openness and hope, highlighting the importance of coexistence. In the end, Father Guilherme raised the flag of Lebanon, promoting unity and respect among people.
