Instructions

Have you ever had an experience where you met a famous person, someone who plays a major role, a leader? St Ignatius of Antioch was a bishop and a leader who passed through suffering circumstances to share Christ. Nowadays, this is the Archbishop’s role and of other leaders who, in the footsteps of the apostles, share Christ’s message even if they encounter obstacles.

  •  Take a pot and sow a plant. Put some soil in the pot, embed the plant and add some soil.
  •  Water the plant u while doing so, think of the bishops of Malta and Gozo, priests and other leaders in the Church who support us to become better persons.
  • On a piece of paper, write “Grow the Plant” and stick it on the pot. Keep the plant in a place you come across often, and continue praying for the bishops and our leaders.
