Mass on the Nativity of the Virgin Mary

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Aħna għandna d-drawwa sabiħa li niċċelebraw il-jum tat-twelid ta’ dawk li huma għeżież għalina, bħal fil-familja. Illum għandna t-twelid ta’ dik li hija Omm Ġesù, imma wkoll li hu tahielna bħala ommna. Għalhekk qed niċċelebraw illum bil-ferħ it-twelid ta’ Marija, li hu t-twelid ta’ ommna. U qed nagħmlu dan bil-ferħ, kif smajna fil-Kelma ta’ Alla, meta fis-Salm  għedna “nifraħ b’ferħ kbir fil-Mulej” għax it-twelid ta’ Marija mhux biss hu għażiż għax hu t-twelid ta’ dik li hija omm tagħna, imma wkoll għax fisser bidu ġdid, fisser tama ġdida għall-poplu u għad-dinja kollha… Read more »

First Reading: 1 Tim 1:1-2,12-14
Psalm: 15 (16):1-2a,5,7-8,11

Gospel: Luke 6:39-42

In those days, Jesus told them a parable: “Can a blind person guide a blind person? Will not both fall into a pit? A disciple is not above the teacher, but everyone who is fully qualified will be like the teacher. Why do you see the speck in your neighbour’s eye, but do not notice the log in your own eye?  … Read more »

His disciples – Bishop Galea‑Curmi

Presentation of adult candidates for Episcopal Confirmation

  St Theresa Convent & Sanctuary Church, Birkirkara

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Hemm kelma fl-Evanġelju illum li meta tismagħha, speċjalment għall-ewwel darba, tiskandalizza – meta Ġesù jgħid: “Min jiġi għandi ma jistax ikun dixxiplu tiegħi jekk ma jobgħodx…” (Lq 14:26) u jsemmi lill-missier u lill-omm, lil martu u l-ulied, ħutu subien u bniet, u saħansitra lilu nnifsu. Dil-kelma ma ddoqilniex għax aħna lil Ġesù nafuh dejjem jitkellem fuq l-imħabba u li inti għandek dejjem tħobb, u tħobb mhux biss lil dawk li huma qrib tiegħek, imma wkoll saħansitra, hu jgħid, li tħobb lill-għedewwa tiegħek (ara Mt 5:44), tħobb lil min jobogħdok… Read more »
