Archbishop Scicluna Cancels Sunday Engagements After Head Injury

Archbishop Charles Scicluna has cancelled his scheduled commitments for Sunday, following a head injury sustained in a “freak accident.” The Archbishop, who was due to lead the Remembrance Sunday mass, was unable to attend after the Curia issued a statement early on Sunday confirming his withdrawal from the event.

In a message posted on his socials , Archbishop Charles Scicluna expressed his regret, stating, “I deeply regret that I cannot honour my commitments today 10/11 for Remembrance Sunday and other events after a freak accident last night during which I suffered a minor head injury.” He also thanked the medical staff at St James Hospital for their care, adding that they had advised him to rest.

In addition to the mass, the Archbishop was scheduled to attend the opening of the first international branch of Fondazione Falcone in Siġġiewi later in the evening, but he will no longer be present at this event either.

The cancellation of these important engagements comes as he focuses on recovery following the unexpected injury.
