| Abstract: | The bishop of Malta was also bishop of Gozo and Comino. Due to the very poor means of communications and the ever-increasing burdens, the bishop seldom visits Gozo. More than one Bishop, in fact, never set foot on Goza. The priests and the people had longed for centuries for a bishop closer to home, but it was only at the very end of the l 8th century that they united their efforts to establish Gozo a separate diocese. Dr Joseph Bezzina in this article writes about the history of Bishops of Gozo. |
