The Chorus Urbanus joined
the Diocesan Pilgrimage to San Gorg
Preca's Shrine in Hamrun by animating
the Pontifical Mass led by Bishop Mgr
Mario Grech on the Eve of the liturgical
Feast of San Gorg Preca, Malta's first
Saint. The pilgrimage organised by the
Diocese of Gozo on Thursday, 6th May
2008, was attended by a large number of
devotees of St Gorg Preca whose remains
are revered in the MUSEUM Society's
Headquarters in Hamrun.
The Chorus Urbanus
animated the Mass which was held at the
Auditorium of the Headquarters with the
tomb of San Gorg prominently displayed
at the background. Various a
cappella motets were sung by the
Choir throughout the Mass. At the end
the Choir sang the popular hymn in
honour of San Gorg Preca accompanied by
the congregation present.
After the Mass, the
members of the Choir had time to visit
the Shrine on the other side of the
Saint's tomb.
