Il-messaġġ tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Fil-ħajja ta’ kull djoċesi Kattolika, hemm mumenti li jagħtu spinta ġdida lill-ħajja tal-Poplu ta’ Alla. Wieħed minn dawn il-mumenti li jgħin f’dan hu bla dubju l-Assemblea Djoċesana – esperjenza ta’ fidi li tfisser ħafna aktar minn laqgħa jew diskussjoni dwar affarijiet amministrattivi. Huwa żmien ta’ smigħ u dixxerniment, fejn il-Knisja lokali tfittex li tisma’ x’qed jgħidilha l-Ispirtu s-Santu, u għalhekk dak li jrid Alla minnha fi żmienna u fis-snin li ġejjin… Read more »

Mother and head of all churches – Bishop Galea‑Curmi

Mass on the feast of the Dedication of the Lateran Basilica, Rome

09/11/2025   The Parish Church of the Holy Family, Iklin

Illum il-Knisja tiċċelebra festa li hija differenti minn ħafna oħrajn li jsiru matul is-sena: il-festa tad-Dedikazzjoni tal-Bażilika ta’ San Ġwann Lateran f’Ruma. Din mhix festa ta’ qaddis, jew ta’ misteru partikolari fil-ħajja Nisranija, imma festa ta’ bini antik ħafna u ta’ valur straordinarju.  Imma dan mhux biss bini ta’ valur kbir, imma l-Katidral tal-Isqof ta’ Ruma, li hu l-Papa. Din il-knisja hi l-omm u r-ras tal-knejjes kollha f’Ruma u fid-dinja… Read more »

Today we remember so many innocent people whose temple, of their lives and dreams, has been destroyed – The Archbishop

Mass on Remembrance Day

09/11/2025   St John's Co-Cathedral, Valletta

Ġesù qiegħed fit-tempju, u jitkellem fuq tempju ieħor. L-Evanġelju stess jispjegalna li kien qed jitkellem fuq it-tempju tal-ġisem tiegħu. Jgħidilhom: “Ħottu dan it-tempju u fi tlitt ijiem nerġa’ ntellgħu” (Ġw 2:19).

Hekk kien jiġri mill-kapijiet u l-awtoritajiet politiċi ta’ dak iż-żmien – min minħabba l-għira u min minħabba l-biża’ li jiddeċiedu li jeliminawh – iħottu t-tempju li kien il-ġisem għażiż tiegħu. Il-Missier b’risposta għall-vjolenza tagħhom lil ibnu jqajmu mill-imwiet: “Ħottu dan it-tempju, u fi tlitt ijiem nerġa’ ntellgħu.”

Qegħdin f’tempju sabiħ, il-Konkatidral ta’ San Ġwann, li nbena bħala l-knisja konventwali tal-Ordni ta’ San Ġwann u li ġie kkonsagrat fi żmienu… Read more »

Archbishop meets women and children residing at Il-Milja

Fondazzjoni Sebħ opens garden at Il-Milja marking 25 years of its second-stage shelter

08/11/2025

Archbishop Charles Scicluna yesterday met with some of the women and children residing at Il-Milja, Fondazzjoni Sebħ’s second-stage shelter for women and children escaping violence, after celebrating mass with them.

“When I had the privilege to greet some of the residents today, there are two phrases that remain with me: ‘I am at peace’ and ‘I feel safe’. Listening to them, it is very gratifying, and I am really grateful because I have a direct witness of the extraordinary effect of this initiative, of the fact that Il-Milja is a safe haven.”

The Archbishop added: “I would also like to take this opportunity to pay tribute to Bernice Cassar, and so many other victims of violence who did not make it, to be able to get the wholeness and healing that people get here.”

After meeting the residents and the employees who support them, the Arcbishop inaugurated the Secret Garden at Il-Milja… Read more »
