The Maltese Augustinian Province with great sadness announces the death of Bro Mario Bonnici OSA who on Saturday 25th May 2024 went to meet the Risen Lord whom he loved and served so much during his life. Bro Mario these last few weeks was living at Karen Grech Hospital.
As an Augustinian religious, Bro Mario lived and served for many years in our community at Tal Pietà where he used to work in St Augustine College. Six years ago, he formed part of the community of Valletta. Bro Mario was always ready to serve and apart from his service at our college, he served in several other convents.
His funeral will be celebrated on Saturday 1st June at Saint Augustine Parish Church in Valletta at 9.30am. Before the mass the body of our brother Mario will be laid in the Oratory of Our Lady of the Good Counsel for the last respects of the public. A private burial will then take place in the tombs of the Augustinian Province in the cemetery of Santa Maria Addolorata.
The Augustinian brothers recommend him in prayer so that the Lord may receive him in his mercy and give him the payment of all that he has worked for during his life.
