The Archbishop prays for peace and the victims on both sides of war

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Ilbieraħ smajna d-djalogu bejn Ġesù u d-dixxipli tiegħu meta jurihom l-għana, li hi tajba fiha nnifisha, li jista’ jkollha l-periklu kbir li taqtgħek mill-proxxmu u minn Alla. Hu jispjegalhom ukoll li l-istedina tiegħu li jħallu kollox mhijiex stedina faċli.

Pietru jfakkru f’din il-ħaġa fuq ix-xatt tal-Baħar tal-Galilija. Pietru (li kien jismu Xmun is-sajjied) sema’ lil Ġesù jgħidlu: “Ejja warajja”… Read more »

Let God fill our hearts – Bishop Galea-Curmi

28/02/2022 The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa at the Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Qarras wiċċu u telaq b’qalbu sewda”. Dan hu li naqraw fl-Evanġelju llum, skont San Mark, fuq ir-raġel li mar jgħaġġel biex ikellem lil Ġesù, inxteħet għarkopptejh, u qallu: “x’għandi nagħmel biex nikseb il-ħajja ta’ dejjem?” Dar-raġel kien qed ifittex dak li tassew jista’ jimlielu qalbu. Ġesù lilu jagħmillu stedina. Meta r-raġel iwieġbu li l-kmandamenti segwihom, Ġesù jgħidlu: “mur, bigħ li għandek, agħtih lill-fqar, u jkollok teżor fis-sema; imbagħad ejja u imxi warajja”… Read more »

First Reading: 1 Peter 1:10-16
Psalm: 97 (98):1.2-3ab,3c-4

Gospel: Mark 10:28-31

Peter began to say to Jesus, “We have given up everything and followed you.” Jesus said, Amen, I say to you, there is no one who has given up house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands for my sake and for the sake of the gospel who will not receive a hundred times more now in this present age: houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and eternal life in the age to come.” But many that are first will be last, and (the) last will be first.” Read more »

Caritas Malta calls for humanitarian response

28/02/2022

Fuq talba tal‑Isqfijiet ta’ Malta u Għawdex, Caritas Malta f’kollaborazzjoni ma’ Caritas Internationalis, qed tappella għal donazzjonijiet ta’ flus b’risq il‑poplu tal‑Ukrajna li bħalissa għaddej minn tbatija kbira minħabba l‑gwerra. Din hi waħda mill‑inizjattivi li l‑Knisja f’Malta qed tieħu biex tgħin lill‑poplu Ukren.

Madwar tliet miljun persuna Ukrena għandhom bżonn għajnuna umanitarja wara l‑attakki mir‑Russja li bdew fl‑24 ta’ Frar. L‑attakki mill‑armata Russa għamlu diversi ħsarat f’diversi bliet fil‑Lvant tal‑Ukrajna, fosthom fil‑kapitali Kiev, fejn ġew ibbumbardjati djar, appartamenti, sptarijiet u skejjel.

Caritas Malta qed tappella għad‑donazzjonijiet biex permezz ta’ Caritas Internationalis tingħata l‑assistenza tant meħtieġa f’dan il‑pajjiż… Read more »

The Pope at Angelus on the wars in all the world: Put down your weapons!

27/02/2022 The Vatican

Dear brothers and sisters, buongiorno!

In the Gospel of today’s Liturgy, Jesus invites us to reflect on the way we look and the way we speak. Our gaze and our speech.

First of all, our gaze. The risk we run, the Lord says, is that we concentrate on looking at the mote in our brother’s eye without noticing the beam in our own (cf. Lk 6: 41)… Read more »
