Readings of the day
First Reading: Eph 3, 2-12
Psalm: Is 12, 2-3.4bcd.5-6
Gospel: Lk 12, 39-48
Jesus said to his disciples: “Be sure of this: if the master of the house had known the hour when the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. You also must be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.” Then Peter said, “Lord, is this parable meant for us or for everyone?”
And the Lord replied, “Who, then, is the faithful and prudent steward whom the master will put in charge of his servants to distribute the food allowance at the proper time? … Read more »
Trafficking in persons and other contemporary forms of enslavement are a worldwide problem that needs to be taken seriously by the international community. It represents one of the most dramatic manifestations of the commercialization of the other, a crime that disfigures both the victims as well as those who carry it out, and a source of shame for humanitythat our authorities and societies must no longer tolerate, as Pope Francis has emphasized… Read more »
Il-messaġġ mill-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
Waħda mid-drabi fejn kelli diversi reazzjonijiet għal omelija li għamilt waqt quddiesa fuq it-televixin kienet meta kont tkellimt fuq dak li wħud jgħidu: li l-pandemija Covid-19 hi kastig ta’ Alla. Kont għedt: “Min jgħid li hu kastig ta’ Alla qed jagħmel insult lil Alla.” Kien hemm uħud li bagħtu emails jew messaġġi jew qaluli li ma qablux. Ma’ xi wħud għamilt diskussjoni twila mhux ħażin anke bl-emails… Read more »

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 »
