Malta pilgrimage information meeting

Monday October 5th 2026

Anyone who is planning on joining the Rev David Humphries on a six-day pilgrimage to Malta in October 2027, or who would simply like to find out more, is invited to an introductory meeting on Saturday October 17.

This takes place in the Canon Lindsay Hall, St Bartholomew’s Parish Church,  Stranmillis, at 2pm

The trip – ‘In the Footsteps of St Paul’ – will run from October 12-19 next year.

The brochure for this pilgrimage states: “Malta holds a unique place in Christian history. It was here, in 60 AD, that St Paul was shipwrecked on his voyage to Rome – and here that the gospel first took hold on this extraordinary island.

“We invite you to explore the very sites where Paul sheltered, preached and healed, from his grotto in Rabat to the island that bears his name.

“Highlights include the golden city of Valletta – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – with its magnificent St John’s Cathedral and the awe-inspiring Mosta Dome. We visit the silent walled city of Mdina, enjoy a fregatina tour of the historic harbours, and travel by private boat to St Paul’s Island itself.

“This is a pilgrimage of deep history, living faith and extraordinary beauty.”
