L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Ħa nħarsu ftit lejn il-vara titulari sabiħa ta’ San Ġużepp Ħaddiem ta’ din il-parroċċa, disinn ta’ Emvin Cremona. Naraw lil Ġużeppi ma’ Ġesu, b’id waħda jżomm tavla u b’id oħra fuq l-ispalla ta’ Ġesu. Fil-festa li qed niċċelebraw illum, din ix-xbieha li tgħaqqad flimkien ix-xogħol u l-familja ta’ Nażaret diġa tagħtina messaġġ sabiħ għall-Ġublew tal-Ħaddiema.
