Marking the 100th anniversary

The Franciscan Friars (OFM) of St. Paul the Apostle’s Province in Malta are happy to mark the 100th anniversary of their presence’s elevation to a Franciscan (OFM) Province by the Order of Friars Minor. For that occasion, the Minister General, Rev.mo P. Pacifico Monza OFM, travelled to Malta and during an extraordinary Chapter presented the Decree to the newly elected Minister Provincial, the V. Rev Fr. Anton M. Cesal OFM and instituted the first Definitorium.

To open these celebrations, a Revival Concert performing sacred music from the Cappella Camilleri archives is being organised at St. John’s Co-Cathedral in Valletta.

The concert will be directed by Maestro Hermann Farrugia Frantz with the participation of the Coro Bel Canto and the renowned National Philharmonic Orchestra.

Our heartfelt appreciation and thanks to all those who collaborated for the organisation of this concert. A special word of thanks goes to the family members of the late Maestro Giuseppe Camilleri.
