Gozo Bishop Mario Grech donated €6,000 to two Gozitan missionaries last week: Fr Alex Cauchi of Għarb, who works in Brazil, and Fr Anthony Grech, of Victoria, who does pastoral work in Guatemala.
The sum was raised by RTK listeners during the programme Nisimgħek, which is broadcast by Mgr George Bezzina every Sunday afternoon from the Media Centre Gozo studios.
The campaign has been held for a number of years during Lent. A number of missionary workers from Gozo as well as charitable institutions benefited from this campaign, which has raised €151,762 since its launch.
The donation was made during a manifestation in Marsalforn themed ‘In favour of a clean moral environment’.
Mgr Grech led Mass together with a number of priests. The Voci Angeliche of Xagħra also took part.
