A priest passing by sees him but does not stop; he keeps on going… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Almenu għal darba Ġesù jiltaqa’ ma’ avukat bravu imma li xorta kellu bżonn jitgħallem xi ħaġa mingħand Ġesù. Dan l-avukat, dan l-għaref tal-Liġi, kellu fih ix-xewqa li għandna lkoll kemm aħna: “Kif nagħmel biex niret il-ħajja ta’ dejjem” (Lq 10:25). Dan ir-raġel, dan l-avukat, mhux biss ried jgħix imma ried jgħix għal dejjem. Ġesù juża l-għerf tiegħu u jgħidlu: “Fil-Liġi x’hemm miktub? … Read more »

  The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa at the Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Ara, jien qiegħed nibgħatkom bħal nagħaġ qalb l-ilpup. Kunu mela għaqlin bħas-sriep u safjin bħall-ħamiem” (Mt 10:16). F’żewġ sentenzi, Ġesù jsemmi erba’ tipi ta’ annimali differenti. Mhux qed jitkellem hawnhekk biex iħeġġiġna għar-rispett lejn l-annimali – avolja aħna nafu li, għax l-annimali huma ħolqien ta’ Alla, għandna dejjem nirrispettawhom.
