Never lose heart in God’s mercy – Bishop Galea-Curmi

Mass offered for those who have marital problems and do not have access to their children

08/04/2020   The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa, Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-Omelija tal-Isqof Awżiljarju Joseph Galea-Curmi

Tletin biċċa tal-fidda kien il-flus li l-qassisin il-kbar taw lil Ġuda biex jistgħu jieħdu lil Ġesù. Tletin biċċa tal-fidda kien il-prezz li kien bih stmat skjav fl-Antik Testment. Daqshekk stmaw lil Ġesù l-qassisin il-kbar!

Kien inqas mill-prezz tal-fwieħa li Marija kienet użat biex dilket riġlejn Ġesù, u dakinhar Ġuda l-Iskarjota kien ilmenta u qal: kieku l-fwieħa nbigħet, il-flus setgħu ngħataw lill-foqra… Read more »

God gives us strength through his forgiveness – The Archbishop

Mass offered to people in prison, detention centres and caregivers

07/04/2020   The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa, Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

F’dan it-tieni jum tal-Ġimgħa Mqaddsa, it-Tlieta, l-Evanġelju ta’ San Ġwann jagħtina żewġ kwadri, żewġ kwadri tat-tradiment.

L-ewwel wieħed huwa tradiment tassew traġiku. Ġesù meta jaħseb fih jitħawwad: “Tassew, tassew ngħidilkom li wieħed minkom se jittradini!” (Ġw 13:21). Ġwanni, id-dixxiplu l-maħbub, jixtieq ikun jaf min hu t-traditur u Ġesù lid-dixxiplu l-maħbub jagħtih sinjal: “Dak li għalih se  nbill din il-loqma ħobż fil-platt u nagħtihielu” (Ġw 13:26)… Read more »

He kept on loving despite betrayal and denial – Bishop Galea-Curmi

Mass offered to people in prison, detention centres and caregivers

07/04/2020   The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa, Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-Omelija tal-Isqof Awżiljarju Joseph Galea-Curmi

Waħda mill-iżjed esperjenzi koroh u ta’ tbatija hija l-esperjenza ta’ tradiment – meta xi ħadd li inti taf, jittradik. U iktar hi ta’ tbatija u tweġġgħek meta ma jkunx biss xi ħadd li taf, jew xi kollega tiegħek, jew xi ħadd li ltqajt miegħu u qiegħed miegħu fuq xi biċċa xogħol, imma xi ħadd li jkun ħabib ta’ ġewwa.

Din hi l-esperjenza ta’ Ġesù li rajna llum: l-esperjenza tat-tradiment ta’ Ġuda l-Iskarjota u magħha hemm ukoll, fl-istess rakkont, it-tħabbira taċ-ċaħda ta’ Pietru… Read more »
