Maltese Friars in the world

The Conventuals are spread all over the world to testify for the truth and work in various fields and with different tasks. Even the Maltese friars contribute to this presence in the one big convent - the world. These friars are proud to be present in various countries while contributing to the cultural and religious growth of themselves and of other people.
