Psalm: 66 (67):2-3,5,6,8
Gospel: John 12:44-50
In those days, Jesus cried aloud: “Whoever believes in me believes not in me but in him who sent me. And whoever sees me sees him who sent me.

And I know that his commandment is eternal life… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Imma fl-aħħar jgħidilhom xi ħaġa li nixtieq li llum nieqfu speċjalment fuqha għaliex tiġbor ħafna l-missjoni ta’ Ġesù fost in-nies: “Jien ġejt biex ikollkom il-ħajja, u l-ħajja bil-kotra” (Ġw 10:10)… Read more »
