The Seminary’s 150 years

15049932_10208194281280869_106117913_nNovember 4th was a red letter day for us and for our Seminary – it marked the 150th anniversary of the founding of our Seminary.  The day was marked by three important moments.  The first was the Pontifical Mass led by Bishop Mario Grech at the Gozo Cathedral to commemorate this day so dear to us and to give thanks to God for the Seminary’s 150 years.  Members of the higher authorities of the Nation together with all the students of the Minor Seminary Secondary School were present for the Mass.   During his homily, Bishop Grech stressed the importance of us knowing that nothing is impossible for God.

Later, all the priests were invited to luncheon at the Seminary.  At the end of the luncheon,
the Bishop announced to all present the new nominations for the diocese.

In the evening the Blessed Sacrament was exposed for adoration at the kamerata, the place where the seminarians live.  The older student members of the Vocations Groups, parents and benefactors of the seminary were invited for this adoration.
