Dear brothers and sisters,

At the heart of the account of the Passion, in the most luminous and at the same time darkest moment of Jesus’ life, the Gospel of John gives us two words that contain an immense mystery: “I thirst” (19:28), and immediately afterwards: “It is finished” (19:30)… Read more »

Solidarity with the victims – Bishop Galea‑Curmi

01/09/2025   The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa at the Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Ġie Nażaret fejn kien trabba” (Lq 4:16). Mal-ewwel, fl-Evanġelju skont San Luqa, naraw lil Ġesù li jibda l-missjoni tiegħu – li jwassal il-Kelma ta’ Alla – mhux f’Ġerusalemm imma proprju f’Nażaret, fejn kien għex, kien trabba. Hawn illum għandna din is-silta fejn Ġesù jmur is-sinagoga. Interessanti dil-kelma li hemm: “kif kien imdorri jagħmel kull nhar ta’ Sibt” (Lq 4:16) – biex tfakkarna dejjem kemm hu importanti li għandna nieħdu bis-serjetà l-obbligi tagħna reliġjużi… Read more »

Humility and generosity – Bishop Galea‑Curmi

31/08/2025   Poor Clares Church, St. Julian's

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Hemm żewġ kelmiet li jfissru tajjeb ħafna l-messaġġ li Ġesù jagħti fl-Evanġelju llum lil dawk in-nies li kienu qrib tiegħu, u lilna wkoll: umiltà u ġenerożità. Hawnhekk Ġesù kien mistieden mal-oħrajn, u kienu madwar mejda, u kien qed jinnota kif il-mistednin bdew jagħżlu l-postijiet ta’ quddiem fil-mejda. Ikla bħal din ma kinetx sempliċiment ikla, imma kien ikun hemm  postijiet ta’ unur, u qisu jekk inti ssib post tajjeb, is-siġġu juri kemm int importanti… Read more »
