May edition of Il-Ħajja f’Għawdex

Gozo diocese magazine reveals St George Preca's ties to the island in latest edition

In the May edition (no. 1,078) of the Gozo diocese magazine Il-Ħajja f’Għawdex, the article that stands out is about St George Preca’s link with Gozo and his visits to the island. The article is the first part in a series based on research by Michael Debono, a senior member of the Society of Christian Doctrine (MUSEUM), and much of the material discovered is being published for the first time in this series.

The 90th anniversary of the arrival of the statue of Don Bosco in Gozo is also commemorated in this edition.

Nicoline Sagona from Heritage Malta provides interesting information about English artist and poet Edward Lear (1812-1888)’s fascination with the island.

The general election is also the subject of the editorial and commentary pieces.
