5 OCTOBER 2011 VISITORS, ST. FRANCIS' DAY, TODAY HERE!!
Yesterday and today have been really special. We were invited to Bilisht to celebrate St. Francis' Day and he was surely honoured as there were six Maltese priests for the Mass. These included the Archbishop of Malta, a Maltese Bishop from Tirana, plus four Dominicans from Durres. Later in the evening, our invitation here for morning Mass was accepted. So, this morning at 6.50a.m. the six clergy arrived, plus our four Maltese friends, who were hosting them, and also four Franciscan Sisters from Bilisht!! We had a full house and a memorable Mass and shared breakfast. Our visitors left quickly as they had a five hour drive to Vlore! Around 10.00a.m. Mirjam, who is still in Germany, informed me she had seen a photograph of our morning celebration on Facebook. We felt very privileged to have had such a blessing on our community.
We now look forward to Mirjam's return at the weekend!
