Message by Archbishop Charles J. Scicluna

After the extraordinary greeting by Mgr Scerri I am lost for words. I will not repeat what I said yesterday, but I would like to take the cue from the beautiful painting that is the background to our meeting today.

As you know, and as we always remember every year, today it is the feast of the conversion of St Paul – his meeting Jesus Christ on the way to Damascus and his baptism in Damascus… Read more »
