L-Omelija tal-Isqof Awżiljarju Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Il-verità teħliskom”. Din il-kelma li smajna minn Ġesù llum turi l-qawwa li għandha l-Kelma ta’ Alla f’ħajjitna. Li hi kelma vera u hi kelma li tagħtina l-libertà vera, il-ħelsien. Ġesù għalhekk jgħid: “Jekk iżżommu fil-kelma tiegħi…tagħrfu l-verità u l-verità teħliskom”.

Ma kinetx l-ewwel darba li tkellem fuq hekk Ġesù u lanqas l-aħħar darba. Fil-fatt, fil-bidu tal-ministeru tiegħu kien qal li hu ġie biex ixandar l-Aħbar it-Tajba li teħles lill-imjassrin, li tagħti l-libertà… Read more »

Let us look to the Lord from whom derives our strength, true freedom and salvation – The Archbishop

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

“Int min int?” (Ġw 8:38). Din hija domanda li nsibuha fl-Evanġelju ta’ San Ġwann kif insibuha wkoll fl-Evanġelju ta’ San Mark.

Din hi domanda dwar min hu Ġesù, l-identità tiegħu. U Ġesù jitkellem b’verità sħiħa li  huwa mibgħut mill-Missier. Hu jgħid ukoll li hu jaf sewwa min huma dawk li qegħdin jistaqsuh: ‘int min int?’. Anzi jagħraf l-ebusija tal-qalb tagħhom, jagħraf ukoll id-dnub tagħhom… Read more »

I always do what is pleasing to him – Bishop Galea-Curmi

Special Mass to those who left their homes and relatives to be of service in the present circumstances

31/03/2020   The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa, Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-Omelija tal-Isqof Awżiljarju Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Jien dejjem nagħmel dak li jogħġob lilu”. F’din is-sentenza Ġesù ġabar l-iskop tal-ħajja tiegħu, tal-missjoni tiegħu, u dak li għamel mill-bidu sal-aħħar. Niftakru li fil-bidu tal-missjoni tiegħu, tal-ħidma tiegħu qalb in-nies, kien qal: “Jien ma ġejtx biex nagħmel ir-rieda tiegħi, imma r-rieda ta’ dak li bagħatni”. Dejjem baqa’ jinsisti fuqha din: li hu jrid jagħmel ir-rieda tal-Missier. Fl-Ort tal-Ġetsemani, fil-mument ta’ tbatija hekk kbira, Ġesù qal: “Jekk jista’ jkun biegħed minni dan il-kalċi imma mhux li rrid jien imma li trid int ikun magħmul”… Read more »
