SFO Day

The National Council is doing its utmost to celebrate SFO day on the first Sunday preceeding the feast of St Francis. This day will be celebrated in all the Francescan Churches in Malta and Gozo where the Homily of every mass celebrated will be directed towards the mission and role of the SFO. With the purpuse to encourage more people to know more about our lay order.

The provincials of the three local Franciscan orders have been contacted and a meeting with the spiritual Assistants of the Fraternities has also been set to ensure full collaboration of all concerned to make this day a success. Preparation included also a sample homily touching the main points to make it easier for each mass celebrant.

The council also prepared a leaflet which will be distributed and a poster to be displayed at the entrance of every Francescan church. Furthermore OFS day will be publicised in the Sunday church leaflet “Jum il-Mulej” and on the media.
