Ta’ Pinu Sanctuary rector Fr Gerard Buhagiar last Sunday blessed a copy of the painting of Our Lady of Ta’ Pinu to be placed in the new Puttinu Cares apartments in Sutton, UK.
A small picture of the face of Our Lady of Ta’ Pinu will also be placed in every room of the apartments built for cancer patients and their relatives.
Fr Buhagiar said many families visited the sanctuary to pray for Our Lady’s intercession before leaving Malta to accompany their relatives for medical treatment in the UK. The image of Our Lady at Sutton will encourage patients not to lose heart.
He also urged people to pray for Puttinu Cares Foundation volunteers who worked so hard to help patients and their families.
