Our Order was invited by Rev. Can. Knight Robin Camilleri, Archpriest of Senglea’s Basilica, to participate in the Feast of Christ the Redeemer. Mass was followed by a procession with the miraculous effigy of Christ the Redeemer around the streets of Senglea, during which prayers were recited.
In the year 1813, during a time when Malta was battling a plague outbreak, the inhabitants of Senglea made a solemn promise. They vowed that if their town was spared from the ravages of this deadly epidemic, they would hold a procession with the Statue of Christ the Redeemer annually. Miraculously, their prayers were answered, and their wish was granted. Since then, without fail, this procession has taken place each year as a testament to their gratitude and faith.
