Shrine of Madonna tal-Ħerba, Birkirkara
21st June 2019
Celebrating St Josemaria Escriva, Founder of Opus Dei, one cannot fail to see how close his writings are to the teachings of Pope Francis, particularly on one important subject on which I would like to focus today: our call to holiness – a subject in which St Josemaria was a precursor of the Second Vatican Council, particularly the Dogmatic Constitution Lumen gentium…
Curia Arcivescovile, Floriana
19 giugno 2019
La nostra società ci invita sempre più ad “apparire”, e sempre meno ad “essere”. Sembra che il messaggio sia questo: farsi vedere, la ricerca dell’immagine a qualunque costo. Voi, che tutti lavorate nel campo della comunicazione sociale, siete in grado di capire bene questo fenomeno…
Il-Kappella tal-Madonna tal-Abbandunati, il-Wardija
15 ta’ Ġunju 2019
Il-festa għażiża tal-Madonna tal-Abbandunati, meqjuma f’din il-knisja tal-Wardija, titfa’ ħarsitna qabel xejn fuq Marija. Hi tassew sabiħa din l-istatwa titulari ta’ Wistin Camilleri li saret madwar l-1919, mitt sena ilu.
Kien f’kuntest tal-akbar abbandun, meta kien fuq is-salib, li Ġesù tana lil Marija bħala Omm…
Il-Knisja ta’ Santa Marija tal-Anġli, Baħar iċ-Ċagħaq
1 ta’ Ġunju 2019
Aktarx li xi darba jew oħra rajna stampa jew pittura tal-festa tal-lum. Kemm-il darba, f’din il-festa tat-Tlugħ fis-sema tal-Mulej, Ġesù jidher maqtugħ mill-art u l-appostli jħarsu lejh iċċassati.
Kellhom għalfejn jiċċassaw f’din il-ġrajja straordinarja meta raw lil Ġesù jberikhom u fl-istess waqt iħallihom biex jitla’ s-sema…
Knisja Parrokkjali tat-Trinità, il-Marsa
27 ta’ Mejju 2019
Franġisku hu isem li jfakkarna f’qaddisin speċjali fil-Knisja u fil-Papa preżenti. Franġisku kien l-isem ta’ Padre Pio qabel daħal il-kunvent ta’ sittax-il sena biex jissieħeb mal-Patrijiet Kapuċċini.
Aħna u niċċelebraw illum l-anniversarju (il-132 sena) tat-twelid tiegħu, tajjeb inħarsu lejn dan il-bniedem importanti fl-istorja reliġjuża Taljana imma wkoll dinjija…
Today, 26th May, is National Sorry Day in Australia, an annual event that has been held since 1998 to commemorate the mistreatment of the country’s indigenous people.
This day carries great significance for the indigenous communities. A report which dealt with the separation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children from their families and communities was tabled in the Australian Parliament on the 26th May 1997…
Knisja Parrokkjali ta’ San Ġwann tas-Salib, Ta’ Xbiex
19 ta’ Mejju 2019
Kif tidħol f’din il-knisja parrokkjali ta’ Ta’ Xbiex, ħaġa li tolqtok hi dik il-kitba kbira li hemm mal-ħajt tal-artal li tgħid: “Fejn ma ssibx l-imħabba, qiegħed l-imħabba u tieħu l-imħabba.” Dan hu l-kliem ta’ San Ġwann tas-Salib, il-patrun ta’ din il-parroċċa…

Il-Kappella tal-Madonna tal-Mirakli, Ħal Lija
11 ta’ Mejju 2019
“Urina…lil Ġesù, frott imbierek tal-ġuf tiegħek.” Hi din it-talba li nagħmlu lill-Madonna fis-Salve Regina. Hi din it-talba li tiġini f’moħħi meta nħares lejn din il-pittura sabiħa tal-Madonna tal-Mirakli.
Hekk qed tagħmel Marija: qed turina lil Ġesù, il-frott imbierek tal-ġuf tagħha…
