Xaghra Parish » Gallery » Christmas 2008 » 01 JAN 09 GREETINGS AT AGAPE
After end of Pontifical Mass in the early moments of the New Year H. L. Mgr Mario Grech Bishop of Gozo accompanied by Mgr Carmelo Refalo Xaghra Archpriest stood by the main door of the Basilica receiving New Year greetings from the parishioners and others staying in Xaghra and reciprocating the same. Hot drinks supported by cake and traditional Xaghra pastries were waiting for everybody on the Church parvis. They did not wait for long since cold hands soon started cleaning the trays and cups were being filled with the hot drink to make up for the very cold breeze around. There was only one pause to allow His Lordship cut a cake for the occassion. The merriment and happiness continued for quite some time. Blessed New Year To All was the message going round all the time.
