Dun Anġ Seychell, founder of Fondazzjoni Nazareth passes away

/in /by

Id-Dar tal-Providenza bids farewell to the dearest memory of Dun Anġ Seychell, founder of Fondazzjoni Nazareth. In 1955, Dun Anġ, inspired by Jean Vanier, the founder of Arche International, chose to offer his own home in Żejtun to host persons with intellectual disability.

On September 8th, 1995 he founded Fondazzjoni Nazareth to administer this home. Today, the Foundation has four residential homes in Żejtun.

All Malta today bids farewell to this priest who like Mgr Mikiel Azzopardi, dedicated his life towards others especially towards persons with disability whom he equally respected and admired.

Grant him, O Lord, eternal rest.
