This time is an opportunity to listen more to the Lord – the Archbishop
Mass offered with prayers for Covid-19 patients so that the Lord may truly heal their soul and body
02/04/2020 The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa, Archbishop's Curia, FlorianaL-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
Il-konfront ma’ Ġesù isir tassew qalil u ma jaħbix il-fatt li bil-mod il-mod kienet riesqa s-siegħa tiegħu.
L-Ewwel Qari li jitkellem dwar il-patt ta’ Alla ma’ Abraham jippreparana għal dak kollu li smajna fl-Evanġelju għaliex il-Lhud jippreżentaw ruħhom bħala wlied Abraham. Imma Ġesù stess jagħtihom x’jifhmu li, li jkunu wlied Abraham ifisser li mhux biss jagħrfu lil Alla, imma wkoll jaraw is-sinjal tal-preżenza tiegħu… Read more »

You have the words of everlasting life – Bishop Galea-Curmi
Mass offered with prayers for Covid-19 patients so that the Lord may truly heal their soul and body
02/04/2020 The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa, Archbishop's Curia, FlorianaL-Omelija tal-Isqof Awżiljarju Joseph Galea-Curmi
Naqraw fl-Evanġelju ta’ San Ġwann li, darba minnhom, wara li Ġesù kien tkellem u wassal il-Kelma ta’ Alla, kien hemm numru sew min-nies li qalu: “Iebes dan il-kliem”. U wara li Ġesù kompla jispjega, l-Evanġelju jgħid: “Minn dakinhar ħafna min-nies telquh u ma baqgħux jimxu warajh”.
Fis-silta li smajna llum, dawn in-nies li qegħdin f’polemika ma’ Ġesù, u għal kull waħda li jgħid jgħidulu oħra, ma jitilqux, imma fl-aħħar tas-silta jgħid li qabdu l-ġebel biex iwaddbuhulu… Read more »
