About Our Lady of the Angels
The Patron Saint of Quiliano
In Quiliano, a town in the hinterland of the province of Savona, the Feast of Our Lady of the Angels is one of the most cherished events. The devotion, linked to the figure of Our Lady as the community's patron saint, is preserved and animated by the Capuchin friars at their convent.
From Novena to Feast
The celebration is preceded by the novena, with the rosary and evening Mass each day. In the days leading up to August 2nd, significant moments unfold: missionary testimonies from friars from Africa, a children's festival with consecration to Our Lady and balloon release, and solemn Masses presided over by the bishop.
August 2nd and the Festival Days
On the feast day, August 2nd, morning Masses, vespers with Eucharistic blessing, and an evening Mass accompanied by vocal ensembles take place. The program concludes with moments of conviviality and concerts, such as the one by the band "Rumpe e Streppa" from Finale Ligure. A festival that intertwines spirituality, tradition, and community life in the hinterland of Savona.
