Fr. Joe Cardona, Vicar of Ghajnsielem Parish, has been conferred the title of Canon of the Basilica of St. Peter & St. Paul, Nadur. This title was bestowed by H.L. Mgr. Mario Grech, Bishop of Gozo during a religious function on Saturday 27th June 2009.

His first public appearance vested in new uniform was during the solemn procession of St. Peter & St. Paul in Nadur on the 28th of June 2009 (the feast date had been changed due to Pauline Year celebrations in Malta on the 29th June).

On behalf of Ghajnsielem, ghajnsielem.com would like to congratulate Can. Joe Cardona on his nomination, while still looking forward to his services in our village.
