AĠĠORNATA BID-DETTALJI TAL-FUNERAL TA' ĦUNA P. NOE SCHIAVONE OSA

Il-Funeral ta’ ħuna P. Noe Schiavone osa ser isir nhar it-Tnejn 15 ta’ Jannar 2024, fil-Knisja Parrokkjali ta’ Santu Wistin fil-Belt Valletta fid-9.30am. Aktar kmieni qabel il-funeral il-ġisem ta’ ħuna P. Noe ser ikun espost għat-talb fl-Oratorju tal-Madonna taċ-Ċintura maġenb il-Knisja Parrokkjali.

Wara ssir id-difna fiċ-Ċimiterju ta’ Santa Marija Addolorata fl-oqbra tal-Aħwa Reliġjużi Agostinjani.

Filwaqt li nirringrazzjaw mill-qalb lill-istaff kollha tad-Dar tal-Kleru, B’Kara u tal-Isptar Mater Dei, li bl-imħabba u l-paċenzja kienu t’għajnuna għal P. Noe matul dawn il-ġimgħat, napprezzaw it-talb tagħkom għal dan ħuna.
Agħtih O Mulej il-mistrieħ ta’ dejjem, id-dawl ta’ dejjem jiddi fuqu, jistrieħ fis-sliem. Ammen. ..
B’sogħba kbira nħabbru l-mewt ta’ ħuna P. NOE SCHIAVONE OSA li aktar kmieni dalgħodu mar jiltaqa’ mal-Mulej li tant ħabb u qeda matul ħajtu. P. Noe dawn l-aħħar ġimgħat kien rikoverat fid-Dar tal-Kleru wara diversi snin fil-komunità tagħna tal-Belt. Bħala reliġjuż u saċerdot Agostinjan, P. Noe għex u serva f’diversi komunitajiet u għal tant snin kien għalliem fil-Kulleġġ Santu Wistin. Parti twila minn ħajtu għaddiha imbagħad fi Sqallija l-Italja fejn ħadem ukoll fil-Provinċja Agostinjana Taljana. Lura Malta, fil-Komunità tal-Belt Valletta, huwa serva bħala Kappillan tal-Monasteru tas-Sorijiet Agostinjani ta’ Santa Katarina. L-aħwa agostinjani jirrakomandawh fit-talb sabiex il-Mulej jilqgħu fil-ħniena tiegħu u jagħtih il-ħlas ta’ dak kollu li ħadem għalih matul ħajtu. Dettalji tal-funeral jitħabbru iktar t**d.
