More from Holy Week and Easter

The Risen Christ at the Valletta procession
There was so much to absorb during Holy Week here in Malta, and so I share a few more photos from my perspective and from my camera angle, which people seem to enjoy. After the Good Friday processions, which were solemn, somber and reverent, a festive procession with the statue of the Risen Christ was held yesterday in many villages. 
From Good Friday suffering to Easter Joy
During the Easter season, a custom is kept that all the parish priests and pastors visit families for the annual Easter house blessing. Some parishes extend it throughout the year in the form of family visits so that they can have more time to talk with parents and help in any issues that may arise in their pastoral interaction.
