Ohloq Tbissima Marathon, the 60 hour live broadcasting marathon in aid of the missionary work carried out by the Missionary Society of St. Paul  (MSSP) both locally and in Peru, Pakistan and the Phiippines, came to an end at midnight. 

The 60 hours were packed. One could participate in mass, the rosary and other times of prayer.  One could also watch various exclusive features clearly showing the work and needs in the different missionary areas.  The programme included discussions, song and dance, competitions and other games as well as varieties to be enjoyed by all and appreciate the high level of the Maltese and Gozitan talent. 

As the 13th edition of the Ohloq Tbsisima marathon came to an end, Marthese Brincat and Fr. Louis Mallia mssp thanked the many volunteers who helped make this marathon possible, whilst creating a happy atmosphere where all worked together.    They also thanked all those who gave their monetary contributions, with the sum collected reaching €166,150.   The marathon came to an end with the Ohloq Tbissima song  sung by Fr. Karm Debattista mssp together with Amber.

Oħloq Tbissima was broadcast in its entirety on F. Living, with various links to TVM2, ONE TV and NET TV  and also various links on local radio stations.
