Exchange of Christmastide Greetings

The Maltese Association was invited to exchange Christmastide Greetings with His Grace Mgr. Charles Jude Scicluna, Metropolitan Archbishop of Malta, at the Archbishop’s Palace in Valletta on Saturday 18th December 2021.
A delegation from Council, lead by the President Daniel de Petri Testaferrata, duly responded to the invitation.
At the exchange of greetings, the President thanked His Grace for having made possible the burial of former Grand Master Fra’ Matthew Festing in the crypt at St. John’s Co-Cathedral, and for having been a co-celebrant together with Silvano Maria Cardinal Tomasi, Special Delegate of His Holiness Pope Francis to the Sovereign Order of Malta, at the funeral service.
His Grace responded by expressing his heartfelt feeling that the event was instrumental in augmenting the excellent relations between the Order and the Holy See.
His Lordship Mgr. Joseph Galea Curmi, Auxiliary Bishop, was also present for the occasion.
