The third dialogue session of Ilkoll Aħwa is taking place on Friday 18th March with the theme chosen being ‘The family in a changing society’ and will be led by Jesmond Schembri. The talk will start by looking at statistics that shed light on the contemporary Maltese family, followed by some reflections. This will serve as an introduction to the various related themes which Pope Francis spoke about, especially in the document Amoris Laetitia.
First of all, Pope Francis sets the general attitude in which this document is to be understood, namely that of having a new look at the family, full of compassion… Read more »
Dear brothers and sisters, good morning!
The bible narrative – with the symbolic language of the time in which it was written – tells us something shocking. God was so embittered by the widespread wickedness of humans, which had become a normal style of life, that he thought he had made a mistake in creating them and decided to eliminate them. A radical solution… Read more »

Gospel: Matthew 20:17-28
As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the Twelve disciples aside by themselves, and said to them on the way, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death, and hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and scourged and crucified, and he will be raised on the third day.”

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
Ġesù jitkellem dwar it-tmexxija, it-tmexxija anke fil-Knisja. Ħafna affarijiet li hu jilmenta dwarhom insibuhom ukoll fostna, fil-qalb tagħna. U aħna nitolbu f’dan il-jum tar-Randan biex il-Mulej isaffina minn kull frugħa, dik li l-Papa Franġisku jsejjaħlu l-ispirtu tal-mondanità, l-ispirtu tad-dinja li jitħallat mal-affarijiet qaddisa, ħallata ballata, u jitbiegħed mit-tagħlim ta’ Ġesù.
Imma ħaġa li ta’ min naħsbu ħafna fuqha, l-aħwa, hi propju l-mod kif inħarsu lejn xulxin u niġġudikaw lil xulxin għax dan l-Evanġelju jsegwi fuq dak li smajna anke lbieraħ meta qalilna: “tiġġudikawx u ma tkunux iġġudikati; tikkudannawx u ma tkunux ikkundannati” (Lq 6:37)… Read more »
