Dear brothers and sisters, good morning and welcome!
Today, let us resume the catecheses on the theme of discernment. We have seen how important it is to read what stirs within us, so as not to make hasty decisions, spurred by the emotion of the moment, only to regret them when it is too late. That is, to read what happens and then make decisions… Read more »
The Archdiocese of Malta has joined hundreds of others in objecting to a development application that would see a Żejtun townhouse dating back to the 18th century replaced by an apartment block that would dwarf its neighbour: the 17th century St Clement’s Chapel.
PA/6418/22 would see the existing townhouse – and its garden – which occupy a triangular plot at the junction between Triq San Klement and Triq Joe Attard torn down and replaced with a five-storey structure which would house ground-floor garages and a single office, nine apartments and a penthouse… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
“Ġesù, Bin David, ikollok ħniena minni” (Lq 18:38). Din hija t-talba li beda jgħajjat dan l-għama li kien mal-ġenb tat-triq jittallab il-karità, u li għamilha meta Ġesù kien għaddej minn din it-triq riesaq lejn Ġeriko.
