At the end of the Diocesan Via Crucis held in the Sanctuary of last Sunday Pinu (7 April 2019), Bishop Mario Grech urged Christians to change in "other Mary". Mgr. Grech was quoting the French Blessed Charles de Foucauld, who had a great devotion to the Blessed Virgin. At the same his view, the Bishop reiterated the call already made "to this Marian Year renew our entire award to Mary by naghmlulha act of entrustment or her consecration". He said in the light of the theme of the same year, that "if we do not we take it with us to our homes nibzghux, Mary twezinna the walk of faith and thus help us remove the knots that we have on our stomachs". This Mary can do because "she believed, but during its life it has grown in faith, matured in the faith, passed the trials sahhewha in complete abandonment in God's will". So, today as well, "with its so continue to release the knots created by the lack of faith ... For where there is faith, love is deeply suffered, and where love is missing, there are all sorts hardship ". He added that it was precisely the lack of faith sallab Christ. Thus, recalled what was said once the Servant of God Father Michael Attard in a homily on the Sorrow: Mary nibkuha expect us not to, but it nibku for sins which are insallbu Christ today as well. The theme of the meditations of the Via Sagra this year was "the Savior Partners" and they were written by Fr Gerard Buhagiar, rector of Ta 'Pinu Sanctuary. Due to bad weather, this year this walk with Cross Street was not made with stations along the High Ghammar, but the Basilica.
