National Protestant College
The National Protestant College is a Lebanese school that was established by the National Evangelical Union of Lebanon,[1] the oldest indigenous Arabic-speaking Protestant congregation in the Middle East.[2] Originally located in Dbayeh, the building moved during the Lebanese Civil war to West Beirut, near Rue Hamra (Haigazian University). In 1997, NPC moved permanently to Kfarshima.
