A total of 619 children received First Holy Communion on three different days at the St Mary's Catholic Church.
The first batch of 281 children from the Friday English Catechism received first Holy Communion on Saturday 18 April whereas the second batch of 253 children received the sacrament on Saturday 9 May.
85 children from the Arabic speaking community received First Holy Communion from the celebrant Rev Fr Joseph Azzo on Friday 1 May during the Mass in Arabic. Arabic Catechism children's choir raised their melodious voices in praising the Eucharistic Lord.
In his homily at both the English services, the main celebrant Rev Fr Peter congratulated the children who looked radiant - all dressed in immaculate white robes. Little Flower Children's Choir sung on both occasions raising our praises to the Almighty.
A few days before receiving the Eucharist, the children had received the sacrament of reconciliation.
The Parish community congratulates all the First Holy Communicants, their parents and catechists on this blessed occasion.
