Homily by Bishop Joseph Galea-Curmi

Jesus says that the people of Nineveh “repented at the preaching of Jonah” (Lk 11:32)… Read more »

23/02/2026   The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa, Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

Dan is-salib li nilbes jesprimi b’mod sabiħ ħafna l-Evanġelju li għadna kif smajna. Hawnhekk  hawn Kristu msallab, u madwaru hawn il-kliem – li qiegħed bil-Franċiż għax dan oriġina Franza – “Kulma għamiltu ma’ wieħed mill-iżgħar fost dawn ħuti, għamiltuh miegħi” (Mt 25:40). U meta ddawwar is-salib, hawn is-sitt opri tal-ħniena li jsemmi Ġesù – kont bil-ġuħ, kont bil-għatx, kont barrani, kont għeri, kont marid, kont fil-ħabs… Isemmi s-sitta li huma – qegħdin hawnhekk… Read more »

L-Ewwel Qari u l-Vanġelu, li għadna kif smajna, fi djalogu bejniethom jgħinuna niskopru mill-ġdid proprju d-don tal-Magħmudija bħala grazzja li tiltaqa’ mal-libertà tagħna… Read more »
