First Reading: 1 John 2:18-21
Psalm: 95 (96):1-2,11-12,13
Gospel: John 1:1-18
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
“Ibni, dan għaliex għamiltilna hekk? Ara, missierek u jien konna qegħdin infittxuk b’qalbna maqsuma!” (Lq 2:48) Dan il-kliem ta’ Marija fil-ġrajja li għadna kemm smajna jurina mument ta’ kriżi fil-familja li qed niċċelebraw illum – il-familja ta’ Ġesù, Marija u Ġużeppi.
Kienu jmorru kull sena Ġerusalemm għall-Festa tal-Għid, imma dak inhar, meta Marija u Ġużeppi ħadu lil Ġesù magħhom ukoll, huma u sejrin lura d-dar – kienet tkun familja kbira bil-qraba u nies oħra – intebħu li ma kienx magħhom Ġesù… Read more »
Message by Bishop Joseph Galea-Curmi
Illum fl-Arċidjoċesi ta’ Malta u fid-djoċesi ta’ Għawdex qed nagħtu bidu għall-Ġublew 2025. Dan isegwi l-inawgurazzjoni uffiċjali tas-Sena Mqaddsa mill-Papa Franġisku lejlet il-Milied, immarkata mill-ftuħ tal-Bieb Imqaddes fil-Bażilika ta’ San Pietru fil-Vatikan.
Is-Sena tal-Ġublew hi żmien importanti għall-Knisja Kattolika. Il-Papa Franġisku għażel bħala tema: “Pellegrini tat-Tama”. Din il-mixja tħeġġeġ tiġdid tal-fidi u impenn ġdid għall-ħajja spiritwali. F’dinja li qed taffaċċja sfidi profondi, din it-tema sservi bħala gwida għalina lkoll… Read more »
Dear brothers and sisters, happy Sunday!
Today we celebrate the Holy Family of Nazareth. The Gospel tells of when Jesus, at the age of twelve, at the end of the annual pilgrimage to Jerusalem, went missing from Mary and Joseph, who found Him afterwards in the Temple conversing with the teachers (cf. Lk 2:41-52). The Evangelist Luke reveals the state of mind of Mary who asks Jesus, “Son, why have you done this to us? … Read more »
