On Wednesday 26th January, ‘Il-Ktieb ta San Guzepp: Gabra ta’ studji’ was officially launched at a private event held at the Archbishop’s Curia in Floriana. His Grace Mons Charles J. Scicluna, Archbishop of Malta, presented a copy of the book to the 16 researchers who contributed to this collection of research, as well as the sponsors, including APS Bank.
The 800+ page book is the brainchild of Andrew Borg, who also edited this landmark publication. It also coincided with ‘The Year of St Joseph’ as declared by His Holiness Pope Francis and the 150th Anniversary of the Proclamation by Pope Pius IX of St Joseph as the Patron of the Universal Church.
Marcel Cassar, APS Bank CEO, commented: “St Joseph holds a special place in the Bank’s history, especially since The Apostleship of Prayer Savings Bank was born from the Unione Cattolica San Giuseppe. Today, more than a century later and with a more modern name, APS Bank remains guided by the Josephine spirit of sustaining the community in every way possible.”
