My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament.
I love You above all things.
I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart… Read more »
Our Lady of Sorrows – Memorial
Readings of the day
First Reading: Hebrews 5:7-9
Psalm: 30:2-6,15-16,20

Meanwhile, standing near the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing beside her, he said to his mother, “Woman, here is your son.” Then he said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” And from that hour the disciple took her into his own home.

Dear brothers and sisters, good morning!
In our catecheses, we continue to meet passionate witnesses to the proclamation of the Gospel. Let us recall that this is a series of catecheses on apostolic zeal, on the will and even the interior ardour to carry forward the Gospel. Today we go to Latin America, specifically to Venezuela, to get to know the figure of a layman, Blessed José Gregorio Hernández Cisneros… Read more »
Ġesù jitkellem ma’ wieħed mill-għorrief tal-Liġi, Nikodemu. Ifakkarna f’dak li smajna wkoll fl-ewwel qari: ir-rakkont ta’ meta Mosè poġġa serp tal-bronż fuq għuda u kull min iħares lejn dan is-sinjal kien ifiq mill-gidma velenuża tas-serpenti ħajjin (ara Numri 21:9). U jgħid: “Kif Mosè refa’ s-serp fid-deżert hekk jeħtieġ li jkun merfugħ fuq Bin il-bniedem” (Ġw 3:14). Mela Ġesù jqabbel lilu nnifsu ma’ dak is-serp tal-bronż li Mosè għolla fuq għuda biex kull min iħares lejha jfiq… Read more »

The Exaltation of the Holy Cross – Feast
Readings of the day
First Reading: Numbers 21:4b-9
Psalm: 77:1-2,34-38
Second Reading: Philippians 2:6-11
Gospel: John 3:13-17
In those days, Jesus told Nicodemus: “No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in him may have eternal life. For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life. Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.” Read more »

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
“Kienu moħħhom fih” (Lq 6:7). Hekk naqraw fuq il-kittieba u l-Fariżej li kienu fis-sinagoga qegħdin jisimgħu lil Ġesù jgħallem. Kienu moħħhom fih għax kienu attenti għat-tagħlim tiegħu? Xejn minn dan! L-Evanġelju jgħid li kienu moħħhom fih għax fis-sinagoga kien hemm raġel li kellu idu l-leminija niexfa, u huma bdew jaħsbu: naħseb dan se jfejqu! U qagħdu attenti biex jaraw x’se jagħmel… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
“Jekk ħuk jaqa’ f’xi dnub, mur sibu waħdu u widdbu” (Mt 18:15). Dan hu l-kliem li jgħid Ġesù lid-dixxipli tiegħu fl-Evanġelju llum, meta jitkellem fuq kif għandha tkun il-ħajja tal-komunità Nisranija. Id-diskors li qed jagħmel hawn hu proprju fuq kif l-Insara għandhom jgħixu fil-komunità.
Hawn jgħid kemm hu importanti li, fejn meħtieġ, tiġbed l-attenzjoni ta’ min ikun żbalja. Meta tagħmel hekk, tkun qed tgħin lill-persuna u lill-komunità… Read more »
