The narrow door leading to Life – Bishop Galea‑Curmi

Mass on the 21st Sunday of the year

  The Parish Church of the Annunciation, Balzan

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Kien fi triqtu lejn Ġerusalemm meta Ġesù “għadda jgħallem f’xi bliet u fl-irħula” (Lq 13:22). San Luqa jfakkarna li Ġesù kien qiegħed miexi lejn Ġerusalemm, u din mhijiex sempliċiment indikazzjoni ġeografika tat-triq li minnha kien għaddej u l-post fejn kien se jasal. Ġerusalemm hu l-post tal-passjoni, tal-mewt u tal-qawmien tiegħu. Kull pass li jagħmel Ġesù hu pass lejn it-twettiq tal-missjoni tiegħu ta’ salvazzjoni. 

Il-mistoqsija importanti

L-Evanġelju jurina lil Ġesù li f’din it-triq, ikompli għaddej minn diversi postijiet biex iwassal il-Bxara t-Tajba… Read more »

The Lord desires that our faith leads our hearts to grow in love – The Archbishop

Mass on the beginning of the pastoral work of Fr Matthew Pulis as parish priest of Manikata parish

  The Parish Church of St Joseph, Manikata

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Għażiż Dun Matthew, int u tibda uffiċjalment il-missjoni tiegħek f’din il-parroċċa għażiża tal-Manikata ddedikata lil San Ġużepp, nitlob fuqek u għalik biex tkun leħen il-Mulej li jsejħilna għall-ħajja aħjar, li jagħmlilna kuraġġ ngħaddu mill-bibien dojoq tal-ħajja għaliex il-ħajja inżul u tlajja’. Ġesù ma jaħbix il-fatt li biex nimmaturaw fl-imħabba, biex nikbru fl-għotja tagħna nfusna, irridu ngħaddu mill-bieb id-dejjaq li kultant ifisser sforz, ċaħda u anke tbatija… Read more »
