The day started very early with witnessing sunrise on St Lawrence’s day. Sunrise brings home to us the truth of the Second Coming of Our Lors. It is a moment of wonder and hope. It is that hope in the Risen Lord that enabled St Lawrence to witness to Christ during such a horrible persecution. The photos below do no justice to the real beauty of sunrise but hope that they can give you at least a glimpse and a share in such a wonderful moment.
After celebrating Mass (offered for the parish of St John’s Sevenoaks) at the Pro-Cathedral in Valletta we walked to view the entrance to the Grand Harbour and the World War II memorial bell – the largest bell on the Island.
In the afternoon two very welcome visitors came to our garden and as you can see from the pictures they provided quite a lot of entertainment.
The day ended with a trip to the maritime and ancient city of Vittoriosa to visit the Parish Church of St Lawrence and see the procession while also enjoying supper overlooking the Grand Harbour.
