1. The Franciscan Sisters celebrated the feast of the Patron Saint of the Mother House, as well as of their Province – Our Lady Queen of the Sacred Heart. The Bishop of Gozo, Mons Mario Grech celebrated Mass, together with Mgr. Carmelo Scicluna and Can. John Mercieca. The Church was beautifully decorated for the occasion, and the statue of Our Lady above the main altar stood out, seemingly blessing all those present, particularly a large number of Franciscan Sisters, some young girls, and other people who usually frequent this small but welcoming Church.

2. The blessing ceremony of the restored bell-cot and restored bell of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Graces in Victoria.

3. On the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the Don Bosco Oratory and from the canionisation of St. John Bosco, the statue of the saint is visiting all parishes in Gozo.
