Officiating the Lenten pilgrimage mass, His Lordship Michael Bibi called on the Christian population to leave behind the life of sinfulness and to journey with Christ in his suffering and death. He told his flock that sin disrupts the communion with God and for this reason, he called on them to make it a duty to observe the sacrament of confession and be repentant of their wrong doings.
He further challenged Christians to help their brothers and sisters to live holy lives by being a source of support so that they do not fall into sin.
The 40-day lenten period, which started on February 14, 2024, shall run till March 28th 2024.
