On Thursday 16th June, 2011, Archbishop Paul Cremona OP, whilst visiting the patients who are being cared for at Sir Paul Boffa Hospital and the medical staff, encouraged the sick to not give up during times of suffering and whenever they feel alone. He reminded them that despite the fact that science and medicine have made great discoveries, spirituality gives meaning to a person’s suffering.
During his visit, the Archbishop was accompanied by the Minister of Health, Dr.Joe Cassar, and by Rev Joe Mallia, who has been rendering a service within the hospital for the past seven years.
