Pope Francis appeals for peace in the Holy Land

    • Pope Francis on Sunday asked for prayers for peace in the Holy Land.

      Speaking after the Angelus prayer in St. Peter’s Square, the Pope described his appeal as “heartfelt” and said we must all continue to pray insistently for peace in the Holy Land in the light of the tragic events of the past days.

  • Fresh in mind – the Pope said – is the memory of the Vatican encounter on June 8th between the Patriarch Bartholomew, President Peres and President Abbas, during which an invocation for the gift of peace was pronounced and the call to break the cycle of hatred and violence was reflected upon…

Archbishop’s message on the occasion of Caritas Malta’s ‘Lejla ta’ Solidarjetà’

    • Il-Knisja f’pajjiżna permezz tal-Caritas kienet pijuniera fil-ġlieda kontra d-droga, u kienet pijuniera fir-rijabilitazzjoni tal-persuni li kienu jieħdu d-droga.

      Issa li ħarġet il-White Paper “Riforma tal-liġijiet dwar id-drogi tal-abbuż”, il-Knisja trid tagħti sehma fid-diskussjoni li bdiet. Ovvjament, irid ikun hemm ħafna kunsiderazzjonijiet u riċerka li ddawwalna.
