  St Peter's Square, the Vatican

Dear brothers and sisters, buongiorno, blessed Sunday!

Today’s Gospel takes us to Jerusalem, in the most sacred place: the temple. There, around Jesus, some people speak about the magnificence of that grandiose building, “adorned with costly stones” (Lk 21:5). But the Lord states, “there will not be left a stone upon another stone that will not be thrown down” (Lk 21:6)… Read more »

Ix-xhieda tagħna l-Insara, li mhux dejjem kienet ta’ min ifaħħarha, għandha bżonn tkun ta’ dawk li jġibu l-paċi… Read more »
