L-ewwel riflessjoni li nixtieq nislet hija li fis-saċerdozju tagħna niltaqgħu ma’ diversi mumenti, l-aktar billejl, mumenti ta’ dlam, mumenti fejn jew aħna nkunu fid-deżolazzjoni jew huma jkunu fid-deżolazzjoni. Il-lejl huwa sinjal ta’ deżolazzjoni.

Saint John 6:52-59
The Jews quarreled among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us his Flesh to eat?”
Jesus said to them, “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day…
Cana Movement is sensitive to the desire of couples to bear and bring up children and they should be supported in this noble vocation. The current Embryo Protection Act favours assistance to infertile couples. Children are gifts and not entitlements or commodities. IVF policies should therefore not relegate the rights of the unborn child to the desire to bear children at all costs, no matter how noble that desire may be…

Iż-żewġ dixxipli ta’ Għemmaws kienu telqu minn Ġerusalemm qalbhom maqtugħa; kienu diġà semgħu n-nisa jgħidulhom li ltaqgħu ma’ Ġesù rxoxt u li kien tahom appuntmaent għall-Galilija, imma tfixxklu bix-xhieda tan-nisa u ddeċidew li jitilqu minn Ġerusalemm.
Il-Mulej ħa ħsiebhom: issieħeb magħhom fit-triq u peress li rahom imnikkta, staqsihom għaliex…
On Wednesday Pope Francis said that to make the sign of the cross is to mark ourselves as Christians, and that it is something we should do often to remind ourselves that we belong to God.

Thursday of the Third Week of Easter
Saint John 6:44-51
Jesus said to the crowds: “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draw him, and I will raise him on the last day. It is written in the prophets: ‘They shall all be taught by God.’ Everyone who listens to my Father and learns from him comes to me. Not that anyone has seen the Father except the one who is from God; he has seen the Father.

Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, but they died; this is the bread that comes down from heaven so that one may eat it and not die. I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world.”
