L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Tagħrfu l-verità, u l-verita teħliskom.” Dan hu l-kliem li Ġesù qal lil-Lhud f’wieħed mill-battibekki li kellu magħhom. Fl-Evanġelju ta’ San Ġwann insibu mumenti fejn Ġesù jagħmel diskursata sħiħa man-nies; huma jgħidulu ħaġa, u hu jgħidilhom ħaġa oħra. Hawn jgħidilhom: “Jekk iżommu fil-kelma tiegħi, tkunu tassew dixxipli tiegħu, u tagħrfu l-verità u l-verità teħliskom.” Huma ħaduha bi kbira li qed isemmi l-ħelsien, li jridu jinħelsu minn xi ħaġa… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Aħna u noqorbu lejn l-Għid nisimgħu iżjed lil Ġesù, b’mod speċjali fis-siltiet mill-Evanġelju skont San Ġwann, iħeġġeġ lil-Lhud, lill-kapijiet, lil dawk li qegħdin jisimgħuh għall-fidi.
