Religious ceremonies held during Holy Week this year will all be broadcast on TV and online, the Church has said. 

Celebrations on Maudy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday will also be available to watch on Times of Malta. 

Archbishop Charles Scicluna will continue to celebrate Mass every day in April, with celebrations aired on TVM2, Knisja.mt and Newsbook.

The archbishop will celebrate daily mass from Monday to Friday at 5.30pm from the chapel of Our Lady of Manresa at the Curia. Mass will be followed by a rosary recital. 

He will also celebrate mass at 9.30am on Sundays from the church of St Francis in Ħamrun. 

Public Holy Week celebrations were cancelled earlier this month due to public health considerations resulting from the coronavirus pandemic.
