L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
Il-kliem ta’ Ġesù jistedinna għas-sens ta’ responsabbiltà. Aħna l-qassisin, ħafna drabi u nagħmlu sew, nipprietkaw kontinwament fuq il-ħniena ta’ Alla. Il-ħniena ta’ Alla hi wkoll mument ta’ umiltà, li fih nitolbu lil Alla jaħfrilna d-dnubiet li nagħrfu li għamilna għax quddiem ir-responsabbiltà tagħna nifhmu li mhux dejjem ngħixu skont l-ideali għolja li għalihom imsejħin.

Dan kien il-kuntest li fih twieled San Benedittu… Read more »

Jumejn ilu kien hemm aħbar kerha li xxukkjat lil ħafna – fin-Nicaragua, is-sorijiet ta’ Madre Tereża, li kienu ilhom hemm 34 sena, ġew imkeċċija mill-pajjiż. Il-pulizija ġabruhom, ħaduhom fil-fruntiera mal-Costa Rica, u dawn qasmu għal dan il-pajjiż.
