L-Ghaqda Hbieb tal-Presepji Ghawdex – Malta 1985, is this year celebrating the 40th anniversary since its establishment in the small Gozitan village of San Lawrenz.
Saturday, the 4th of October marks the anniversary, which is also the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi the patron saint of nativity crib makers. A logo has been issued to celebrate this special anniversary.
The Association said that its aim since inception is to promote the nativity crib so that it finds a place in each home and remains an integral part of the Maltese and Gozitan culture as it is today.
To commemorate this anniversary, the Association is organising a number of events at San Lawrenz, Gozo, starting with a thanksgiving solemn Mass at 6.30pm on Saturday.
Then on Sunday, the 5th of October, an Annual National Seminar will be organised. All are invited and more details and information can be found on the posters.
