American and Federal Knights, Dames, and candidates in formation from the Southeast Florida Area gathered at St. Paul of the Cross Church to celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes and World Day of the Sick.

Before attending the Healing Mass, members gathered in the church’s Grotto to pray the Rosary with the special intention for the poor and the sick. Fr. Tom Lafreniere, Pastor of St. Paul’s and Order of Malta Chaplains, Fr. Dave Caron and Fr. Brian King concelebrated.

Donations raised for the poor & the sick were for Holy Family Hospital of Bethlehem, a primary work of the Order of Malta.
