The Chapel for Eucharistic Adoration in our Parish was blessed on 10th February 2006. In September 2005, Rev. Fr. George Bugeja OFM, who was the Parish Priest at that time, had announced that a Chapel for Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament was to become a reality as designs and plans were being finalized. There were two alternative places that were identified to suit this purpose; one being in the actual Church itself and the other was next door to the office of the Parish Priest. In fact, the ideal site was the latter, where there were two small rooms that were being used as a storage place.
The designs had been sketched by Fr. Jesmond Grech whilst the structural plan was handled by the architect, Herbert Debono. Once the work began, it was carried out efficiently in record time. The parishioners were so excited about this project that many people contributed sums of money for this purpose. For this reason, therefore, no church collections were ever made in this respect except for donations.
The total sum amounted to €21,897 (Lm9,400). This amount included the structural works, the floor tiling, the marble, the Tabernacle, the bronze work and the installation of electricity and security system.
The Chapel was called: The Lord is my Rock (1 Samuel 2,2). The Confraternity of the Blessed Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist of our Parish was given the responsibility to run the said Chapel once it was opened and Blessed.
This Chapel is situated next door to the Convent and the office of the Parish Priest which is in Dun Pawl Street, Sliema.
