Peace be with you, Pope Leo XIV

Photo: Catriel Farrugia Sghendo

“Peace be with you” — these were the first words with which Pope Leo XIV greeted the faithful gathered in St Peter’s Square, and indeed the entire world, as he appeared for the first time on the central balcony of the Apostolic Palace.

In a calm yet resolute voice, the Successor of Peter invited each and every one of us “to be a synodal church, walking and always seeking peace, charity, closeness, especially to those who are suffering.” These words offer a clear indication that his pontificate will be marked by openness, compassion, and fidelity to the Gospel… Read more »

“Teach me, O Lord, the way of your statutes”

Mass on the feast of St George Preca

  The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa at the Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Morru fid-dinja kollha, xandru l-Evanġelju lill-ħolqien kollu” (Mk 16:15). Huwa dan li jgħid Ġesù lill-ħdax illum fl-Evanġelju, u huwa dan li niċċelebraw fil-festa ta’ San Ġorġ Preca. San Ġorġ Preca kellu f’qalbu li jrid iwassal l-Evanġelju lil kulħadd, u fil-fatt, meta waqqaf is-Soċjeta tal-MUSEUM, is-Soċjeta tad-Duttrina Nisranija, ried proprju dan. L-inizjali tal-kelma MUSEUM ifissru: “Mgħallem, mhux li kien id-dinja kollha timxi wara l-Evanġelju tiegħek”… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

“Il-Mulej kien jaħdem magħhom” (Mk16:20). Kemm hi kelma ta’ faraġ din il-kelma mill-Evanġelju skont San Mark li qrajna fil-festa ta’ San Ġorġ Preca u li naqraw ukoll fl-10 ta’ Frar. Kienet idea sabiħa tal-Knisja, li l-Evanġelju li jinqara meta nfakkru l-miġja tal-Appostlu Missierna San Pawl, nerġgħu naqrawh ukoll fid-9 ta’ Mejju meta nfakkru lil San Ġorġ Preca.

Fl-Evanġelju l-Mulej qed jagħti missjoni speċjali lid-dixxipli tiegħu… Read more »
