Rosary In Memoriam H.E Lieutenant to the Grand Master Fra’ Marco Luzzago 1950-2022

11/06/2022 


Upon learning of the sudden passing of the beloved H.E Lieutenant to the Grand Master Fra’ Marco Luzzago (1950-2022), over twenty Members of the Order of Malta across Australia, including the National President and the Regent of the Sub-Priory, gathered online to pray the Rosary for the Repose of the Soul of the dearly departed.

Members who shared the Order’s recent Lourdes Pilgrimage reflected upon their providential meeting with Fra’ Marco, touched by his humility, affable kindness, wisdom and devout spirituality.

The solemn funeral of Fra’ Marco Luzzago will take place on Tuesday 14 June at 7pm AEST, in the Basilica dei Santi Bonifacio ed Alessio in Rome. The funeral will be live streamed via the Order of Malta YouTube channel.
