Gozo Bishop Mario Grech recently inaugurated a mosaic icon of the Madonna Ta’ Pinu in Nazareth during a 10-day pilgrimage he is leading in the Holy Land with Ta’ Pinu Sanctuary rector Gerard Buhagiar.
The work of art was done by Fr Roberto Gauci and Joseph Borg from the Eikon centre for projects of liturgical art. Malta’s ambassador to Israel, Cecilia Attard Pirotta, was present for the unveiling ceremony of the icon in the yard of the Sanctuary of the Annunciation of Our Lord, Nazareth.
