Another step by two young men to make it to the Altar. Mark Bonello from Xaghra and Daniel Grech from Kercem received the Ministry of Acolyteship from the hands of H.L.Mgr Mario Grech, Bishop of Gozo. The ceremony took place during a Concelebrated Mass led by H.L. the Bishop of Gozo in St George's Basilica in Victoria. The Bishop was assisted by Mgr Paul Cardona, Archpriest of St George's Parish and Mgr Joseph Farrugia Archpriest Emeritus of the Parish. Among other priests concelebrating were Mgr Carmelo Refalo, Xaghra Archpriest and Can Brian Mejlak, Parish Priest of Kercem. The Congregation filling the Basilica was led by the parents and grandparents of the two Acolytes, relatives, many friends and members from both theirparishes. While congratulating Mark Bonello and Daniel Grech in their new Ministry, we wish them Ad Altiora.
