Robert Cowley, was a member of the Anglican congregation in Gozo, and for some years he cleaned refuse from the Bethlehem f’Ghajnsielm site at Ta’ Passi fields, Ghajnsielem, before the start of the Christmas Nativity Village.
Sadly Robert passed away in June and the congregation decided to continue with this annual clean up in his memory.
Bright yellow T-shirts were printed with `Gozo Anglican Action` and on Saturday a group of enthusiastic members set to work, armed with gloves, spades, rakes and refuse bags.
The Ghajnsielem Local Council supported the venture and provided the bags, which, after a few hours work on the area, were soon filled up.
The Gozo Anglican Community said that they intend to continue this work on a regular basis “as a gift to the community.”

A very admirable gesture by the Gozo Anglican Community who has been doing many community-oriented activities without much fanfare. I am sure that everyone appreciates their incentives. Thank you
