A pentitential pilgrimage led by Gozo Bishop Mario Grech to pray for rain was held last Sunday from Qala parish church to Qala Sanctuary. The Jesus the Redeemer statue of Qala was carried during the well-attended event, which was organised by the Gozo Curia. The pilgrimage was preceded by a concelebrated Mass led by Mgr Grech at Qala parish church. The current acute dry spell in the Maltese islands is particularly damaging to Gozo’s agricultural produce.
