My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament.
I love You above all things.
I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Isqof Awżiljarju Joseph Galea-Curmi
Meta Pietru u sħabu kienu fuq id-dgħajsa li kienet qed titħabat mal-mewġ, bir-riħ kontra tagħhom, l-aħħar ħaġa li kienu qed jistennew kienet li jaraw xi ħadd miexi fuq il-baħar. Għalhekk kif raw xi ħadd miexi, qalu li hu fantażma. Kien Ġesù, m’għarfux li kien Ġesù. Imma meta Ġesù għamlilhom il-qalb, Pietru, li dejjem hu l-ewwel wieħed li jitkellem u jieħu azzjoni, ried li jmur ħdejh, jimxi fuq il-baħar u jasal sa ħdejh… Read more »
Dear brothers and sisters, good day!
This Sunday’s Gospel presents to us the miracle of the multiplication of the loaves (see Mt 14,13-21). The scene takes place in a deserted place, where Jesus had retired with His disciples. But the people found Him so as to listen to Him and to be healed: indeed, His words and His gestures restore and bring hope… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
Meta aħna nisimgħu din il-ġrajja, moħħna mal-ewwel imur fuq il-miraklu, li kien miraklu kbir u fil-fatt jissemma’ mill-evanġelisti kollha – kif Ġesù tema’ aktar minn ħamest elef ruħ b’ħames ħobżiet u żewġ ħutiet. Din hi ħaġa li tiskantak. Imma l-ġrajja tal-lum hi ħafna aktar profonda. Mhijiex biss il-miraklu, imma hemm ukoll dak li jiswa tassew għall-ħajja tagħna llum. Nixtieq insemmi żewġ messaġġi importanti li hemm f’din il-ġrajja… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
L-Evanġelju tal-lum jibda b’mument partikolari ħafna fil-ħajja ta’ Ġesù. Għalkemm l-Evanġelju stess ma jagħtiniex dettalji imma jibda b’dan il-kuntest verament partikolari. Ġesù jisma’ bl-aħbar tal-mewt ta’ Ġwanni l-Battista, dak li kien indikah bħala l-ħaruf ta’ Alla li jneħħi d-dnubiet tad-dinja, dak li kien preżenti fil-magħmudija tiegħu, dak li wrieh lid-dinja.
Anke f’kuntest ta’ vjolenza għaliex qatlulu ħabib kbir, il-Mulej jibqa’ jħobb, jibqa’ juri sentimenti ta’ ħniena, ta’ kompassjoni… Read more »
