Pastoral Letter for Lent 2017: Choices pleasing to the Lord

  • “Rise and do not be afraid” (Mt 17, 7). These are the words that Jesus told his disciples – Peter, James and his brother John – following his experience on Mount Tabor.

Il-kollass tat-Tieqa tad-Dwejra għandu jiftħilna bieb biex nirriflettu fuq il-patrimonju nazzjonali

Stqarrija mill-Kummissjoni Interdjoċesana Ambjent

Il‑poplu u l‑politiċi jħossu li l‑pajjiż tilef parti mill‑patrimonju nazzjonali. U bir‑raġun!

    Dan l‑avveniment iżda għandu jħeġġiġna, kemm ċittadini u kemm politiċi, biex nistaqsu mistoqsijiet pertinenti dwar x’qegħdin nagħmlu biex nimmaniġġaw b’mod sostenibbli r‑riżorsi li għad fadlilna…
