Tifla li tilfet lil ommha minħabba marda terminali stqarret li l-kura palljattiva li ngħatat kienet estendiet il-ħajja tagħha b’erba’ xhur.

Waqt li kienet qed titkellem fil-programm “Live mill-Paroċċa”, Claire Grech, li tilfet lil ommha f’April li għadda, qalet li mill-kura palljattiva jibbenefikaw mhux biss il-pazjenti, iżda wkoll il-qraba tagħhom.

In whatever the Lord calls us to do, in both our daily lives and our journey of faith, there are times when we feel inadequate… Read more »

When the impossible is possible with God’s help – Bishop Galea‑Curmi

Mass on the feast of St Rita of Cascia with the annointment of the sick

  The Church of St Mark, Rabat

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Jiena d-dielja, intom il-friegħi. Min jibqa’ fija u jiena fih, dan jagħmel ħafna frott; għax mingħajri ma tistgħu tagħmlu xejn” (Ġw 15:5). Dan hu l-kliem li smajna lil Ġesù jgħid lid-dixxipli tiegħu, fl-Evanġelju skont San Ġwann, u huwa l-kliem li jfisser tassew il-ħajja ta’ Santa Rita.

Aħna llum qed nifirħu fiċ-ċelebrazzjoni tal-125 sena minn meta ġiet dikjarata qaddisa mill-Papa Ljun XIII, proprju llum, u waqt li nifirħu, qed inħarsu lejha u nitolbu l-interċessjoni tagħha għall-Papa Ljun XIV, kif ukoll biex tkompli tkun ta’ ispirazzjoni għalina fil-ħajja tagħna… Read more »

Our option should be palliative care – The Archbishop

Mass on the sixth Sunday of Easter

  The Chapel of the Sacred Heart, Hospice Malta, Santa Venera

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Hi kelma ta’ faraġ, dik li jgħidilna Ġesù llum: “Tħallux qalbkom titħawwad u anqas titbeżża’” (Ġw 14:27). Donnu jafna tajjeb ħafna l-Iben ta’ Alla magħmul bniedem, jaf li ċerti ċirkustanzi diffiċli tal-ħajja, nitħawdu u nibżgħu fihom. Illum waqt li nsellem lill-Hospice, nixtieq insellem lil kull min, għax għandu dijanjosi ta’ marda terminali, iħossu mħawwad u mbeżża’. Dan hu territorju qaddis li jeħtieġ minna mogħdrija, kompassjoni u wens; l-għerf ta’ min jaf jiskot quddiem il-misteru tal-proċess tal-mewt, għax il-mewt hi proċess… Read more »
