Psalm: 17 (18):31,47,50,51
Gospel: Mark 6:14-29
King Herod heard about Jesus, for his fame had become widespread, and people were saying, “John the Baptist has been raised from the dead; that is why mighty powers are at work in him.” Others were saying, “He is Elijah”; still others, “He is a prophet like any of the prophets.”
But when Herod learned of it, he said, “It is John whom I beheaded… Read more »
Dear brothers and sisters, good morning!
In recent weeks we have been able to deepen our understanding of the figure of Saint Joseph, guided by the few but important pieces of information given in the Gospels, and also by the aspects of his personality that the Church over the centuries has been able to highlight through prayer and devotion. Starting precisely from this sentire commune (“common feeling”) of the Church that has accompanied the figure of St Joseph, today I would like to focus on an important article of faith that can enrich our Christian life and also shape our relationship with the saints and with our deceased loved ones in the best possible way: I am talking about the communion of saints… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
Ġesù jagħti l-istruzzjonijiet missjunarji. Qed jibgħat lit-Tnax, l-ewwel grupp u l-iżjed grupp viċin tiegħu, jibgħathom tnejn tnejn biex ikunu ta’ sapport għal xulxin u jagħtihom setgħa speċjali, setgħa fuq l-ispirti ħżiena.
Iwissihom imma biex ma jagħmlux l-iżball li jiddependu fuq l-affarijiet li għandhom magħhom. Il-Mulej se jieħu ħsiebhom. Allura għandhom bżonn il-ħatar għat-triq, l-għasluġ li jwennes is-saqajn għajjiena, ir-riġlejn li jegħjew imma mbagħad iridu jitgħallmu jilqgħu dak li jagħtuhom il-familji li jilqgħuhom għandhom… Read more »
