The Proclamation of Advent and the Presentation of the Icon of the Year

IMG_4931On Saturday, December 2nd, the Seminary community attended to the proclamation of Advent and to the presentation of the icon for this year of formation.  During the celebration, Rector Fr Richard N. Farrugia shared with us his thoughts for the beginning of this liturgical year.  Various hymns related to Advent, including Maranathà, were sung.  The icon for this year was written by Vincent Mangani and was inspired by the verse: “She sat by the Lord’s feet, listening to what he said”  (Lk 10,39).  This verse refers to the visit Jesus paid to Martha and Mary.
