F’kull waħda mil-lokalitajiet tal-Kottonera, it-tradizzjoni tal-purċissjoni bil-Bambin fi żmien il-Milied għadha għaddejja ġmielha. Din id-drawwa bdieha San Ġorġ Preca iktar minn 100 sena ilu, fl-1921 fil-Ħamrun, u f’temp ta’ 20 sena infirxet madwar Malta kollha.
Bħal kull sena, il-Fondazzjoni se tkun qed toffri imbuljuta b’xejn waqt waħda mill-purċissjonijiet. Is-sena l-oħra għamilnieha l-Isla, u din is-sena se ssir Bormla. B’hekk inżommu din it-tradizzjoni ħajja sena wara sena madwar il-Kottonera kollha
Across all the Kottonera localities, the tradition of the Christmas procession with the Christ Child continues to flourish. St George Preca introduced this custom more than a century ago, in 1921 in Ħamrun, and within just 20 years it had spread throughout Malta.
As we do every year, the Foundation will be offering free imbuljuta tal-qastan during one of the processions. Last year we did so in Senglea; this year, it’s Bormla’s turn. In this way, we keep this cherished tradition alive across Kottonera, year after year
