- Bieb tal-Ġublew: Fost il-Bibien tal-Ġublew tat-Tama li tħabbru hemm dak tal-Millenium Chapel li tinsab fil-Parroċċa tagħna. Nfakkrukom li biex tinkiseb l-Indulġenza Plenarja il-persuna trid iżżur din il-knisja b’devozzjoni, tagħmel mument ta’ adorazzjoni, tgħid it-talba tal-Missierna, Kredu u talba Marjana (preferibbilment is-Salve Regina). Fl-istess ġimgħa għandha tirċievi s-sagramenti tal-qrar u t-tqarbin sabiex tkun tista’ tinħeles mit-tbatija ta’ dnubietha. Din l-Indulġenza tista’ tinkiseb ukoll għal ruħ fil-purgatorju.

- Door of the Jubilee of Hope: The door of the Millenium Chapel in our parish has been chosen as one of the doors of the Jubilee. In order to obtain a Plenary Indulgence one needs to visit this church in reverence, spend some time in adoration, pray the Our Father, the Creed and a Marian prayer (preferably the Hail Holy Queen). One must also receive the sacraments of reconciliation and communion during that same week to be freed of the pain of one’s sin. This same indulgence can even be obtained for a soul in purgatory.
