A spectacular sunset occurred yesterday over the skies of Malta. It just happens that sunset at this
time of the year takes place around 4:30 PM, when I am celebrating Mass in my
chapel. But yesterday I saw a luminous, cloudy sky and ran up to the third
floor around 4:15 PM to capture a spectacular sunset with my camera. Luckily,
the distant hills of Rabat and Mdina were not cluttered with cranes and skyscrapers, and this is probably the only direction which is still unspoiled
by the modern technological and structural annoyances which dominate the
Maltese skyline, just about wherever you look. The Baroque churches of Rabat
and Mdina, as well as the belfry of the Carmelite church add a little touch of the spiritual and the sacred to this scene. I
share this ominous photo with you today as we continue our Advent journey
towards Christmas.
