The Minister Provincial Fr. Paul Galea OFM has began his last canonical visitation before next year's provincial chapter. The Provincial is taking the opportunity to meet all friars and talk with them on their work and on the province in general. 
The May 2007 issue of “L-Aħbar” is again online as usual. It contains various news items and articles regarding our province and the Franciscan Order.
