F’dinja fejn hemm ħafna sorsi, tajjeb li aħna noffru servizz li persuna tkun tista’ tafdah. Ovvjament, il-fiduċja trid takkwistaha pass wara pass, kuljum. U din il-fiduċja tibnuha intom bil-professjonalità tagħkom, bil-kapaċità li tgħarblu s-sorsi, bl-umiltà li intom stess tkunu l-widna ta’ min m’għandux vuċi… Read more »

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

Din is-silta mill-Evanġelju ta’ San Luqa(Lq 12: 35-40) tispjegalna ftit l-atteġġjament ta’ Ġesù fuq il-mewt. Għax għal Ġesù il-mewt hija żjara u jgħidilna:  “Kunu mħejjija għal din iż-żjara” (Lq 12: 40). Ma ħarabx minnha, forsi din hija waħda mill-akbar misteri tal-ħajja. Ma nafux meta.
