Prayer for Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament.
I love You above all things.
I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart… Read more »
L-Arċidjoċesi ta’ Malta laqqgħet l-assemblea djoċesana annwali bit-tema ‘Il-Knisja f’Malta llum: Komunjoni, Parteċipazzjoni, Missjoni’, li hi t-tema tal-Pjan Pastorali ġdid li qed jitħejja biex jitnieda matul is-sena d-dieħla. Dan il-pjan se jkun koordinat mill-Vigarjat Episkopali għall-Koordinament Pastorali.
Fid-diskors tiegħu, l-Arċisqof Charles Scicluna spjega l-viżjoni tal-pjan pastorali li hu bbażat fuq il-kelmiet: ‘komunjoni’, ‘parteċipazzjoni’ u ‘missjoni’ – il-bażi tas-sinodalità. Sostna kemm ta’ kuljum Malta għandha bżonn tiskopri “l-imħabba li tiġi mill-għotja tal-ħajja tagħna lil xulxin u l-ispirtu ta’ servizz” – li hi parti mill-komunjoni li għandna naspiraw għaliha… Read more »
Il-messaġġ tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
Nerġa’ nirrepeti bħalma għamilt ilbieraħ ir-ringrazzjament u l-gratitudni tiegħi tal-preżenza tagħkom u b’mod speċjali wkoll nirringrazzja lil dawk li qed isegwuna online. L-Assemblea Djoċesana, li ħarġet mill-inizjattiva tal-mibki Monsinjur Mercieca wara s-sinodu Djoċesan, hija esperjenza li ta’ kull sena tfakkarna li aħna rridu nikbru f’familja li nimxu flimkien. Wara kollox l-ispirtu tas-sinodu huwa dan li aħna niskopru lilna nfusna familja li qegħdin fi vjaġġ flimkien: sinodos… Read more »

Psalm: 121 (122):1-2,4-5

Gospel: Luke 23:35-43
The rulers sneered at Jesus and said, “He saved others, let him save himself if he is the chosen one, the Messiah of God.” Even the soldiers jeered at him. As they approached to offer him wine they called out, “If you are King of the Jews, save yourself.” Above him there was an inscription that read, “This is the King of the Jews.”
Now one of the criminals hanging there reviled Jesus, saying, “Are you not the Messiah? … Read more »
L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi
Il-Festa tal-Preżentazzjoni tal-Verġni Mqaddsa Marija fit-Tempju ma nsibuhiex fl-Iskrittura. Qiegħda fil-Letteratura Apokrifa, fl-Evanġelju Apokrifu skont San Ġakbu, fejn hemm li l-ġenituri tagħha ppreżentaw lil Marija, meta kienet għadha żgħira, ta’ tliet snin.
Imma hemm tifsira importanti, anke jekk ma nafux dettalji storiċi fuq x’sar eżattament u x’ma sarx. Hemm tifsira li mindu kienet għadha żgħira, Marija ġiet ippreżentata lil Alla fit-Tempju, biex hemmhekk, mindu żgħira, hi diġà qed tkun konsagrata lil Alla biex tagħmel ir-rieda tiegħu u hemmhekk, fit-Tempju, tagħti qima lil Alla u ssir hi t-Tempju l-iktar importanti fejn Ġesù jitwieled… Read more »

Psalm: 9:2-3,4 & 6,16b & 19
Gospel: Luke 20:27-40
In those days, some Sadducees, those who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and asked him a question, “Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies, leaving a wife but no children, the man shall marry the widow and raise up children for his brother. … Read more »
Malta’s safeguarding framework is growing more sophisticated — with stronger structures, clearer procedures, and a Church-led commission that now extends support beyond religious settings.
Yet, as experts highlighted on Attwalità on World Children’s Day, the system is still failing the people who need it most: those too afraid, too isolated, or too unaware to seek help.
Legal gaps and limited oversight leave vulnerable people exposed
Mark Pellicano, Head of Malta’s Safeguarding Commission, outlined a stark truth: while the Commission investigates reports, provides victim support, trains organisations, and develops safeguarding policies, it lacks the legal power to protect vulnerable people across all sectors… Read more »
