Ritratt: Arċidjoċesi ta’ Malta – Ian Noel Pace L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Il-vers li l-kor kanta b’mod tant sabiħ qabel l-Evanġelju li għadna kemm smajna huwa vers tassew kommoventi li jiġbor l-esperjenza tal-mewt għal min jemmen.

Tenuisti manum dexteram mea (qbadtli idi u mexxejtni minn idejja)
Et in voluntate tua deduxisti me (ħadtni skont ir-rieda tiegħek)
Cum gloria assusisti me (dawwartni bil-ġieħ u l-glorja)

Din it-tama tagħna, aħna l-Insara meta quddiem il-fdalijiet ta’ Anthony illum, qegħdin nagħmlu talba lil Alla, għajn ta’ kull ħniena biex lil Anthony, li għaddieh minn din l-esperjenza, isir għalih faraġ, hena u sliem… Read more »

Without boasting – Bishop Galea‑Curmi

28/07/2025 The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa at the Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Żerriegħa tal-mustarda” (Mt 13:31) u “ftit ħmira” (Mt 13:33). Huma dawn iż-żewġ tixbihat li juża Ġesù fil-parabboli li jsemmi llum dwar is-saltna tas-smewwiet. Ġesù, meta jitkellem b’dawn il-parabboli, ma jagħmilx diskors infantili imma diskors sempliċi li fih ħafna għerf divin. Hawnhekk Ġesù qed iqabbel is-saltna tas-smewwiet ma’ kif taħdem żerriegħa tal-mustarda, u tikber; u x-xogħol li tagħmel ukoll il-ħmira.

Ħa naraw it-tifsira ta’ dawn… Read more »

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Mulej, għallimna nitolbu” (Lq 11:1). Din hi x-xewqa li wera wieħed mid-dixxipli lil Ġesù. Qallu hekk minħabba li d-dixxipli kienu rawh jitlob, u ndunaw li fil-ħajja ta’ Ġesù t-talb kien daqshekk importanti. Kienu raw il-mirakli li kien għamel, semgħu l-kliem tiegħu ta’ għerf, imma għarfu li fil-qalba ta’ dan kollu kien hemm it-talb – Ġesù kien jagħmel ħin twil fis-skiet jitlob… Read more »
