L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
“Mela x’għad ikun dan it-tifel?” (Lq 1:66) Din hi d-domanda li għamlu l-ġirien u n-nies fuq Ġwanni l-Battista, meta għarfu dan il-mod speċjali tat-twelid tiegħu. Aħna nafu llum x’kien Ġwanni l-Battista, u hemm żewġ kelmiet li jistgħu jispjegaw ħafna min hu Ġwanni l-Battista: hu l-prekursur u x-xhud. Huwa l-prekursur – dak li ġie qabel Ġesù biex ihejji t-triq għall-Mulej – u x-xhud, bil-kelma tiegħu u b’ħajtu, xhud ewlieni ta’ min hu Ġesù… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
“Hu kien fil-poppa, rieqed fuq imħadda” (Mk 4:38) Dan id-dettall fir-rakkont tal-Evanġelju skont San Mark illum, meta qed jitkellem fuq Ġesù mad-dixxipli tiegħu, baqa’ fil-moħħ u fil-qalb tal-ewwel Insara. Din il-ġrajja turi lil Ġesù mad-dixxipli tiegħu fuq id-dgħajsa, waqt li qed jaqsmu l-baħar tal-Galilija; imma turina wkoll li Ġesù kien f’post partikulari – fil-poppa, in-naħa ta’ wara tad-dgħajsa.
Din il-ġrajja d-dixxipli baqgħu jiftakruha għax dak inhar qamet tempesta, u diversi mid-dixxipli kienu midħla ta’ xi tfisser tempesta f’dak il-baħar… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
“Il-Mulej għamel miegħi ħwejjeġ kbar.” Hekk għedna fis-salm responsorjali. Hi espressjoni sabiħa li sidtna Marija tgħid hi stess fl-Evanġelju skont San Luqa. U dan is-santwarju għażiż tal-Madonna ta’ Pinu, aħna u niċċelebraw proprju dak li għamel magħha l-Mulej, infakkru t-tlugħ tagħha fis-sema. Ix-xewqa tagħha li ngħidu tliet Ave Marijiet f’ġieħ il-tlett ijiem li għamlet fil-qabar qabel l-assunzjoni tagħha.
Imma rridu nagħrfu li fl-espressjoni tagħha hemm ukoll il-karattru ta’ Marija… Read more »
