Bell project enters a new phase

(Tuesday, 29th September
2009)
 

With the recent visit of Archpriest Fr. Frankie Bajada to the Cornille-Havard bell foundry in France , the bell project for our church entered a new phase. Actually the process of the manufacturing of the bells has started.

With the designs almost all ready by local artists Paul Stellini and Vince Caruana, the foundry started work on the low reliefs which will eventually be part of the bell decorations. Work is being done so these artistic designs on the bells can later on be gilded by Rudolph Cauchi.

In the foundry, work on the moulds for bells 6-8 also started last week. If everything goes well, and, most important, the funds continue to raise, there is the possibility that we can even have the bells by the next feast. Parishioners are being invited to contribute monthly for this very big project. Bell number three is inviting donors who can afford a big donation to be part of it too. The names and coats of arms of the family name of these donors will be put on this bell.
