L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
Il-ġrajja tat-tentazzjonijiet ta’ Ġesù, li smajna fl-Evanġelju skont San Mattew, hija ġrajja li għandha ħafna dawl u għajnuna x’tagħtina għall-ħajja tagħna.
Jekk ix-xitan ittanta lil Ġesù, li hu bin Alla, kemm aktar nistennew li jittanta lilna! Għalhekk dan ir-rakkont jagħmlilna l-qalb, għax jurina li t-tentazzjonijiet huma parti mill-ħajja, nistennewhom, u li rridu nagħmlu aħna hu li noqogħdu attenti ħalli ma nċedux għat-tentazzjonijiet imma nagħrfu nagħżlu t-tajjeb mill-ħażin… Read more »
Dear brothers and sisters, buongiorno!

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
“Għax jekk minħabba fil-ħtija ta’ wieħed waħdu saltnet il-mewt, permezz ta’ dak il-wieħed, aktar u aktar dawk li jirċievu l-kotra tal-grazzja u d-don tal-ġustizzja għad isaltnu fil-ħajja permezz ta’ wieħed li hu Ġesù Kristu” (Rum 5:17).
Dan il-kliem li smajna fit-tieni qari llum jagħti tifsira sabiħa għall-pellegrinaġġ li għadna kemm għamilna, imwennsin bil-preżenza għażiża tal-istatwa qaddisa u venerabbli tal-Madonna tal-Grazzja… Read more »
