The annual traditional fjakkolata organised by Kerċem’s Santa Luċija administrative committee was held last Sunday on Għar Ilma hillock. The fjakkolata initiative started some decades ago when the Santa Luċija community lacked electricity supply to light up the annual processional road. An extra effort was put into this year’s edition to light up 3,023 fjakkoli (oil candles) for it to be placed in the Malta Book of Records.
