The decree has been signed and our church is officially a Basilica. It has been a long and draining road to reach this recognition for our community but the result makes the struggle worth it.

Fuq xewqa ta' missirijietna Qriema llkoll mghammdin fit-Tempju Maestuz dedikat lil San Gorg Martri, qed nkomplu sabiex din Parrocca antika taghna ssir BAZILIKA. Bhala radd il-hajr lil Alla u lil dawk kollha li hadmu aktar minn 600 sena bhala Komunita' Nisranija.
Din il-Parrocca ta' San Gorg kienet ta' refugju spiritwali bejn zewg widien kbar, u fil-qalba tal-port il-kbir. Qdiet il-missjoni spiritwali taghha fl-Assedju l-kbir 1565 mill-qilla tal-Ottomani fejn kellha il-Forti Sant'Iermu taht il-kura tal-parrocca San Gorg. Sahanistra il-kappillan eroj Dun Gwann Cilia safa martri waqt l-imsemmi Assedju.
Parrocci li hargu minn San Gorg hal Qormi :-
Porto Salvo -San Duminku, Valletta
San Pawl Nawfragu, Valletta
Madonna ta' Damaxxena (tal-Griegi), Valletta
Sant' Anna (fil-Forti Sant'Iermu), Valletta
Tal-Vitorja (propjeta tal-Ordni ta' San Gwann), Valletta
San Gejtanu, Hamrun
Santa Venera, f'Santa Venera (li parti minnha kienet wkoll ma' Birkirkara)
San Publiju, Floriana
Trinita' Qaddisa, Marsa
San Sebastjan, Qormi
Kuncizzjoni, Hamrun
Maria Regina Marsa
Santu Wistin, Valletta
Madonna tal-Karmnu Fluer- de lys (parti minn Santa Venera u Birkirkara)
Madonna ta' Fatima (parti mill-Imsida)
**************************************************
Il-knisja Parrokjali li ghandna llum hija it-tielet wahda qabilha kien hemm tnejn ohra fl-istess sit.
Il-Knisja ta' San Gorg flimkien ma dik tal-Kon-katidral ta' San Gwann il-Belt il-faccati taghhom huma attribbwiti lil Gilormu w ibnu Vittorju Cassar u spirati mill-Knisja ta' San Lorenzo Firenze disinn ta' Michaelangelo Buonarroti stil Rinaxximentali u Mannierista.
L-eleganza u s-simetrija tal-faccata tal-knisja ta' San Gorg hija mill-aqwa tant li l-Perit Hugh Braun isejjhilha bhala "The most dignified facade in Malta"
Ninkoraggikom li tiffirmaw din il-petizzjoni.

The climb toward one hundred signatures feels slow and the weight of our long history is heavy tonight. Please find someone new to invite because we cannot let this momentum fade away now.

This title should have been given ages ago. It's the mother of a good number of parish churches
It-titlu ta' Bazilika huwa sigill fuq storja antikissima ta' parrocca rikka li minnha sahansitra twieldet il-kapitali Maltija.
Il-knisja ta Hal Qormi San Gorg hija omm hafna parocci ohra. Jisthoqila li tkun bazilika. Rahal bhal hal Qormi li fieh dik il-popolazzjoni kollha haqu li jkollu bazilika
Il Parrocca ta San Gorg Martri jixraqilha u haqqha verament tkun Bazilika. Ghal ammont ta Parrocci li hargu minnha li fosthom hemm Kollegjata u Bazilika, l artijiet kollha li kellha , l ammont kbir u sabih ta qassisin li hargu minnha u l istorja kbira li ghanda l Parrocca taghna.
This is quite obvious. Saint George's Church in Qormi should have been one of the first Basilica in MALTA, knowing her history!
Ejja ha ssir kemm jista jkun malajr
Din ok parrocja jisthoqila tkun Basilca.

This church had me in aww when I first walked into it as an adult. I was baptised there but now live in Australia. My late father God bless him, loved his St George church and was so proud of it. Rita
