“We welcome them, accompany them and integrate them” – The Pope on immigrants

07/11/2022

Il-Papa Franġisku qal li hemm erba’ passi li għandhom jittieħdu mal-immigranti:”nilqgħuhom, nakkumpanjawhom, nippromwovuhom u nintegrawhom”. Fil-kummenti tiegħu mal-ġurnalisti abbord it-titjira papali li kienet se tieħdu lura l-Vatikan mill-Bahrain, il-Papa qal li l-kwistjoni tal-migrazzjoni teħtieġ soluzzjonijiet konkreti.

Mistoqsi dwar il-grupp ta’ elf persuna li ġew salvati mill-NGOs imma ma tħallewx jiżbarkaw fl-Italja, hu appella biex kull persuna li tkun qed tfittex l-ażil tiġi milqugħha, akkumpanjata, promossa u integrata fis-soċjetà rispettiva tagħha biex verament tħossha sigura filwaqt li appella lill-Unjoni Ewropea biex tikkordina aħjar il-wasliet ta’ dawn il-persuni fost l-Istati Membri… Read more »

Being shrewd and wise – Bishop Galea-Curmi

04/11/2022 The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa at the Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Is-sid faħħru lil dak l-amministratur ħażin” (Lq 16:8). Din is-sentenza fl-Evanġelju llum taħsadna. Ara li nisimgħu fuq serq, qerq, tbagħbis fin-numri, amministrazzjoni ħażina, tberbiq tal-ġid – kollu ikrah u ikrah ħafna, imma qisu ma jissorprendiniex! Imma li s-sid ifaħħar lill-amministratur ħażin, dik hija ħaġa stramba. Kont tistenna li s-sid jirrabja, jagħtih ħasla, u jirrabja aktar meta jinduna li dan baqa’ sal-aħħar iberbaqlu ġidu… Read more »

Ethernal Life – Bishop Galea-Curmi

Mass on the 32nd Sunday of the year

06/11/2022 The Parish Church of the Annunciation, Ħal Balzan

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Fost in-nies li kienu jkunu kultant f’polemika ma’ Ġesù, fost il-gruppi, kien hemm tnejn partikulari, li kienu l-Fariżej u s-Sadduċej. Il-Fariżej – li nisimgħu iktar bihom – kienu dawk li jridu jwettqu l-ittra tal-Liġi ta’ Alla, imma ħafna drabi kien jinsew l-iktar affarijiet importanti, bħall-imħabba u l-ħniena ta’ Alla, u nsibu lil Ġesù f’polemika magħhom. Imbagħad kien hemm ukoll is-Sadduċej. Mhux f’kollox kienu jaqblu mal-Fariżej – għalkemm insibuhom jaqblu magħhom biex joqtlu lil Ġesù aktar tard… Read more »

Gospel: Luke 16:9-15

Jesus said to his disciples: “I tell you, make friends for yourselves by means of dishonest wealth so that when it is gone, they may welcome you into the eternal homes. “Whoever is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much; and whoever is dishonest in a very little is dishonest also in much.

If then you have not been faithful with the dishonest wealth, who will entrust to you the true riches? And if you have not been faithful with what belongs to another, who will give you what is your own? No slave can serve two masters; for a slave will either hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to the one and despise the other… Read more »
