Fr Reuben Gauci lives in Siggiewi and is a Catholic priest serving in Malta. Since 2005, his ministry was mainly within a parish focusing on youth faith formation. From 2010, he started serving young people within an organisation called YCA and as a school chaplain with several primary, secondary and post-secondary schools. Working with Fr Paul Chetcuti, he introduced Prayer Spaces in Schools after participating in a training course by the Prayer Spaces in schools UK team in London. From 2015, Fr Reuben promoted Prayer Spaces in Schools around the Maltese islands. Fr Reuben enjoys travelling, walks in the countryside, video games, photography and producing videos.
