What happens on two mountains – Bishop Galea-Curmi

Mass on the Second Sunday of Lent

28/02/2021 The Parish Church of the Annunciation, Ħal Balzan

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Malta m’għandniex muntanji. Għandna xi għoljiet. Imma min xi darba ra muntanja, u kien ħdejn muntanja, jaf l-impressjoni kbira ta’ xi ħaġa immensa, enormi, li tara quddiemek. Xi ħaġa li qisha tgħollilek ħsiebek lejn is-sema.

Fl-Iskrittura hemm mumenti partikulari meta l-muntanja hi l-post fejn Alla juri lilu nnifsu, u fejn Alla jagħti wkoll messaġġ importanti lin-nies. Pereżempju, aħna familjari mal-muntanja Sinaj, fejn Alla ta l-kmandamenti lill-poplu Lhudi permezz ta’ Mosé… Read more »

26/02/2021 The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa at the Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Ġesù hu esiġenti – jitlob ħafna minna. Kliemu kultant jinstema’ iebes u diffiċli biex tgħixu. Kieku dal-kliem li smajna llum fl-Evanġelju jgħidu lil xi ħadd fi żmienna, ikun hemm min jgħidlu: taf x’qed tgħid? Taf kemm nies ma jagħtux kas dan li qed tgħid?

Imma nafu li Ġesù xorta jirrepetih lilna dan il-kliem, għax jaf li fl-aħħar mill-aħħar hu ta’ ġid għall-ħajja tagħna… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

F’din il-mixja tar-Randan huwa ta’ pjaċir kbir għalija li nkun magħkom, għeżież residenti tal-Faċilità Korrettiva ta’ Kordin, mal-uffiċjali, u mal-istaff. Insellem ukoll lill-Ministru tal-Intern Byron Camilleri.

Għadna kemm bdejna ċ-ċelebrazzjoni tal-Griżma ta’ Simon, wieħed mir-residenti li bl-għajnuna tal-kappillan ta’ din il-faċilità korrettiva beda l-mixja biex illum jikkonferma l-fidi tiegħu f’Ġesù u jirċievi d-don tal-Ispirtu s-Santu. Id-don tal-Ispirtu s-Santu huwa d-don tal-imħabba… Read more »
