On Monday 27th October, the Millennium Chapel organised a book launch of a new publication entitled ‘The Priest in a Tracksuit’. This biography is meant to celebrate the exceptional life of Fr Hilary Tagliaferro osa.
It was launched on the eve of Fr Hilary’s 91st Birthday and for the 25th Anniversary of the Millenium Chapel. It consists of contributions by a number of individuals who have known Fr Hilary over the years.
It focuses on his unique personality and vast social and pastoral experience. The event was introduced by Keith Demicoli, addressed by Dr John C. Grech, Chairman of the Millennium Chapel Foundation, followed by an interview of Fr Hilary by Peppi Azzopardi. Background music was provided by the very talented Dr Lydia Buttigieg on the harp.
This publication was supported by the several sponsors who have been contributors to the initiative of the Save and Support Trust who funded this publication. Thanks is also due to the Editors Prof. Victor Grech, Doreen Vassallo Grant and Tony Meilak who made this possible.
The Book is available at the Millennium Chapel Bookshop and all revenue will go to the Millennium Chapel.
