Gozo Bishop Mario Grech recently officially launched the Pauline Year in the Gozo Diocese.
The ceremony took place in the parish church of Nadur which is dedicated to Apostles St Peter and St Paul. It included the proclamation of the Pauline Year and the symbolic opening of the church's main door.
Each parish priest attending the ceremony was given a candle, lit from the Easter Candle (blandun), so that it may burn in their respective parish churches during the Pauline Year.
The next activity is a Marian Manifestation at the Marsalforn promenade on July 22 at 7.30 p.m., led by Mgr Grech.
