My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament.

come at least spiritually into my heart… Read more »

Pope at Angelus – Lent is the time for prayer and silence

18/02/2024   Saint Peter's Square, The Vatican

Dear brothers and sisters, buongiorno!

Today, first Sunday of Lent, the Gospel presents us with Jesus tempted in the desert (cf. Mk 1:12-15). The text says: “He was in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan”. We too, during Lent, are invited to “enter the wilderness”, that is, silence, the inner world, listening to the heart, in contact with the truth… Read more »

The fasting that comes from a heart full of love – Bishop Galea-Curmi

16/02/2024   The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa at the Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Għaliex aħna u l-Fariżej insumu, u d-dixxipli tiegħek ma jsumux?” (Mt 9:14). Din hija d-domanda li għamlu d-dixxipli ta’ Ġwanni lil Ġesù, kif naqraw fl-Evanġelju skont San Mattew illum. Dawn qed jagħmluha b’mod ġenwin. Hawn qed nitkellmu fuqhom, mhux fuq il-Fariżej li kemm-il darba staqsew lil Ġesù bi skop ieħor. Dawn għandhom domanda ġenwina.

Ġesù jgħidilhom ċar li waqt li d-dixxipli qegħdin miegħu, jiċċelebraw il-fatt li qegħdin miegħu… Read more »
