L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Aħna s-sena tibda mhux fl-1 ta’ Jannar, għalina bħala talb tal-Knisja imma tibda bl-Avvent, b’dak l-istaġun li jħejjina għall-Milied u qegħdin fl-aħħar ġranet ta’ din is-sena li se tispiċċa u l-qari jitkellem dwar l-aħħar żminijiet, l-aħħar mumenti… Read more »

23/11/2022

Iċ-ċelebrazzjonijiet huma parti importanti mill-ħajja tal-bniedem u qegħdin ngħixu f’soċjetà li tagħmel kull mezz biex tfakkarna liema ċelebrazzjonijiet ikunu ġejjin.
