Ritratt: L-Arċidjoċesi – Ian Noel Pace L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
Fl-Evanġelju li għadna kemm smajna, Ġesù jgħid kelma sabiħa li tgħodd għal din l-okkażjoni: “Illum f’din id-dar daħlet is-salvazzjoni”(Lq 19: 9). Din hija dar imbierka. Evidentement qed jirreferi għad-dar ta’ Żakkew, dak ir-raġel qasir li kellu jitla’ fuq siġra, biex jara lil Ġesù, li kien magħruf bħala bniedem xħiħ, li mhux biss kien jieħu t-taxxi, imma wkoll kull tant jieħu iżjed milli hemm bżonn… Read more »

Inħossni mimli minn ġewwa”. Dan fost residenti li kienu qed jagħmlu programm waqt li qegħdin il-ħabs.
Waqt li kien qed jitkellem fuq il-programm Il-Papa Ljun XIV preżentat minn Luke Vella, Gatt kompla jgħid li fost ir-residenti li kienu qed jagħtu servizz, “il-kelma komuni hija l-ferħ”, u li dak hu l-ispirtu tal-Milied – li fost din it-tbatija umana, hemm ukoll dan il-wens tas-solidarjetà… Read more »

Readings of the day
First Reading: Acts 28:1-10
Psalm: 15:1-2,5,7-8,11
Gospel: Mt 25:31-40
“When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, and he will put the sheep at his right hand and the goats at the left.
Then the king will say to those at his right hand, ‘Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.’
Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink? And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you clothing? And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?’ And the king will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.’”
