Jesus answered, “I saw you under the fig tree before Philip called you.” Nathanael replied, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God! … Read more »
Madwar 17,000 student u 3,000 edukatur qed jerġgħu lura fl-iskejjel tal-Knisja għas-sena skolastika l-ġdida. Il-55 skola tal-Knisja f’Malta u Għawdex f’dawn il-jiem qed jilqgħu fiżikament lill‑istudenti u l‑edukaturi kollha f’konformità mal‑linji gwida tal‑pandemija. Dan seta’ jsir bil‑ħidma li saret mill‑iskejjel u li kompliet matul ix‑xhur tas‑sajf, kif ukoll bil‑għajnuna finanzjarja mill‑Istat.

Psalm: 86 (87), 1-3.4-5.6-7
Gospel: Lk 9, 51-56
When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem. And he sent messengers ahead of him. On their way they entered a village of the Samaritans to make ready for him; but they did not receive him, because his face was set toward Jerusalem. When his disciples James and John saw it, they said, “Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them?” But he turned and rebuked them. Then they went on to another village. As they were going along the road, someone said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.”

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
Hemm ċirkustanzi fil-missjoni ta’ Ġesù li ġabulu swied ta’ qalb. Din tal-lum hi waħda minnhom, meta ntebaħ li d-dixxipli kienu qed jitkellmu, fi kliem l-Evanġelju skont San Luqa, dwar min kien l-akbar fosthom: “inqalgħet kwestjoni …dwar min kien l-akbar fosthom”.
Kienet ta’ swied il-qalb għax kienet tmur kontra dak li għallem Ġesù lilhom u dak li wriehom bil-ħajja tiegħu… Read more »

Dear brothers and sisters, buongiorno!
The Gospel of today’s Liturgy recounts a brief dialogue between Jesus and the Apostle John, who speaks on behalf of all the entire group of disciples. They saw a man who was casting out demons in the name of the Lord, but they stopped him because he was not part of their group. At this point, Jesus invites them not to hinder those who do good, because they contribute to the fulfilment of God’s plan (cf. Mk 9:38-41)… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
Aħna l-Maltin – imma naħseb li mhux biss il-Maltin – għandna kultant it-tendenza li nagħmlu bħalma smajna llum fl-Evanġelju: nifirdu n-nies ‘magħna’ u ‘mhux magħna’. Smajna fl-Evanġelju llum lil Ġwanni jgħid lil Ġesù: kien hemm raġel li ridna nżommuh għax mhux magħna u mhux wieħed minn tagħna.
Kultant jiġrilna hekk: li nifirdu n-nies ‘magħna’ u ‘mhux magħna’. Kultant, aktar minn hekk: ‘magħna’ u ‘kontrina’… Read more »
