The parish church at Msida, celebrating the feast of Saint Joseph |
The season of the Maltese festa is at its
peak right now, with two to four celebrations being held in different parishes
each week. It is a week-long celebration with the culmination coming on Sunday
evening with the procession of the titular statue of that particular parish.
I’ve been visiting some of these parishes on Sundays and over the next few days
I will be sharing some fabulous photos of the churches, decorated at their very
best.
The parish of Balzan celebrating the feast of the Annunciation |
No explanation is needed other than to appreciate the sacrifice that so
many people go through to decorate their churches, their streets and make their
festa (Maltese for feast) the best ever. And at the end, it’s hard to choose
which is the best, because every parish has something special and unique to
offer. These photos show the decorated, lit-up church on the outside.
