    L-ewwel nett nixtieq niringrazzja lil Fr John li qralna l-Kelma ta’ Ġesù, l-Evanġelju, u lil sħabkom talli qrawlna l-Kelma ta’ Alla. Fl-Ewwel Qari li smajna kien hemm sentenza li fakkritni f’dak li qegħdin nagħmlu llum għaliex il-Ktieb ta’ Bin Sirak jgħid hekk: “It-tifkira tiegħu jxandruha l-ġnus u t-tifħir tiegħu ħabbru l-ġemgħa”…

    Reflecting on the final petition of the Lord’s prayer, he said Jesus invites us to ask God to “deliver us from evil” because “life is fraught with difficulty.”

    “If these last lines of the Our Father were excluded, how could sinners, the persecuted, and desperate and dying souls pray?” he asked…

  • Il-President ta’ Malta Dr George Vella akkumpanjat mis-Sinjura Vella, għamel l-ewwel żjara uffiċjali tiegħu fid-Dar tal-Providenza. F’diskors lir-residenti u ħaddiema qal li fid-Dar tal-Providenza jara miraklu ħaj li jiġġedded kuljum. Huwa żied jgħid li spiċċa ż-żmien meta persuna b’diżabilità kienet tiġi mwarrba jew ma tingħatax l-attenzjoni li ħaqqha. Din hija xi ħaġa li tirrifletti l-iżvilupp tas-soċjetà tagħna fejn il-persuni b’diżabilità jieħdu dak li hu tagħhom bi dritt u mhux b’karità.  Il-President qal li din hija xi ħaġa li verament tgħolli d-dinjità tal-bniedem għax kull bniedem, anke jekk għandu xi nuqqasijiet, huwa xbieha ta’ Alla u jistħoqqlu r-rispett ta’ kulħadd.  Dr Vella temm billi rringrazzja lill-ħaddiema u l-voluntiera kollha għad-dover u x-xogħol li qed jagħmlu f’isem is-soċjetà…
