L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
“Ħarsu rwieħkom minn kull regħba”. Din hija l-kelma li smajna lil Ġesù jgħid fl-Evanġelju tal-lum, u aħna nafu mill-esperjenza tal-ħajja kemm hi vera. Ir-regħba x’inhi? Hija dik il-kilba li jkollok, ikollok iktar, iġġib iktar, tiġma’ iktar. Ġesù jgħid: ħajtek ma tiddependix mill-ġid li jkollok.
Għalhekk lin-nies Ġesù qalilhom: iftħu għajnejkom, għax faċli titqarrqu. U jġib l-eżempju bil-parabbola ta’ dan ir-raġel li kellu ħafna ġid u ried jaħżen il-ġid kollu biex hu jixxala u jgawdi dan il-ġid… Read more »

Is-Soċjetà tad-Duttrina Nistranija, permezz ta’ Pubblikazzjoni Preca, ippubblikat dawn il-kotba li jistgħu jkunu utli għall-ħajja spiritwali u l-ministeru pastorali.
It-tentazzjoni u d-dixxerniment hu ktieb tat-teologu Ċilen Segundo Galilea li oriġinarjament kien ippublikat fl-1991. Għandu jinteressa lil dawk impenjati fil-Knisja għax jispjega b’mod prattiku u attwali kif nistgħu niddistingwu bejn it-tqanqil tal-Ispirtu s-Santu u dak li hu biss falsità.
Mingħajru ma nistgħu tagħmlu xejn: inkunu missjunarji fid-dinja tal-lum hu ktieb-intervista tal-Papa Franġisku mal-ġurnalista Taljan Gianni Valenti li oriġinarjament kien ippublikat fl-2019… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
X’inhi din il-Ġurnata Missjunarja? Għal ħafna minna hi l-ġurnata meta aħna nieqfu ftit biex naħsbu fil-Knisja li hi missjunarja, speċjalment f’dawk il-pajjiżi msejħin ‘tal-missjoni’ u l-għajnuna li tingħata lilhom. Aħna għandna lil Missio f’Malta, u hawn Mons. Valent Borg, li qed jikkonċelebra li hu d-direttur tal-Missio, u nixtieq nirringrazzja lilu u lill-ħaddiema u dawk kollha li qed jagħtu servizz f’Missio għall-ġid li qed jagħmlu biex il-Knisja tista’ tkun tassew Knisja missjunarja… Read more »

Someone in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, tell my brother to share the inheritance with me.” He replied to him, “Friend, who appointed me as your judge and arbitrator?” Then he said to the crowd, “Take care to guard against all greed, for though one may be rich, one’s life does not consist of possessions.”
Then he told them a parable… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
Il-festa tal-Madonna tas-Saħħa – festa li ilha tiġi ċċelebrata hawnhekk f’din il-knisja mill-1815, jiġifieri aktar minn 200 sena – din is-sena ġiet fi żminijiet partikolarment diffiċli. Il-pandemija tal-Covid-19 – theddida kbira għas-saħħa ta’ kulħadd – laqtet id-dinja kollha u bħalissa qed inħossu ħafna l-piż tagħha f’diversi pajjiżi tal-Ewropa u f’pajjiżna. Din l-aħħar ġimgħa f’Malta kienet iebsa ħafna – għal dawk li għaddew għall-ħajja ta’ dejjem u l-familjari tagħhom; għal dawk milquta mill-virus fejn kellna rekord wara l-ieħor; u għal dawk kollha li nsejħulhom frontliners li ħafna minnhom qed jaħdmu bla nifs imma ġieli l-ħidma tagħhom hekk importanti, avolja frontliners, ma tidhirx… Read more »
