On Wednesday 8 February 2017 at 5.30pm a Prayer Vigil was held at St Augustine Priory in Gozo. Some passages of Fra Grazzja Gauci OSA’s life were read out, and afterwards a painting showing Fra Grazzja was blessed, followed by a moment of adoration. The painting was painted by Manuel Farrugia. On the same day Fra Grazzja’s biography was published – a work done by Eman Bonnici. Holy paintings were distributed with a prayer written by the Bishop of Gozo Mons. Mario Grech.
