I was able to visit the procession held in honor of St Joseph yesterday in the town of Rabat in Malta, and from the 60 photos I took, I share with you only three that show the statue of St Joseph, besides one of the beautifully decorated church. This church is not even a parish, but run by the Franciscans monks who have a lot of help from neighbors and lovers of St Joseph. Thousands of people descended on this little town, and of course they enjoyed it because it is still winter, unlike summer when most of the village feasts are held, and everyone will be sweating and complaining of the heat.
The curious thing is that all the decorations, inside and outside the church will have to make room for the Lenten and Holy Week decorations, starting with the celebration of Our Lady of Sorrow, celebrated in Malta on Friday.
