Rector of the Church, Can Anthony Refalo Rapa, was also co-celebrating with them. Leading the congregation were men and women who have offered themselves to serve as missionaries in the forthcoming Diocesan Mission. Each one was presented with the miniature missionary cross which they will carry on them while carrying out their mission among Gozitan families during the said Diocesan Mission.
