“I feel a father’s pain when he tells me his daughter tried alcohol or drugs at a feast” – Bishop Teuma

“Meta jiġi missier ta’ tifel jew tifla jgħidli li missew max-xorb jew mad-droga fil-festa, jiena għalija nħossha.

M’għandi xejn kontra n-nar jekk isir b’mod moderat, sintendi. Dejjem jekk isir bħala espressjoni ta’ ferħ.”

L-Isqof ta’ Għawdex Anton Teuma qal dan waqt li kien intervistat waqt il-programm Għal Kulħadd fuq RTK103 ta’ Christine Delicata… Read more »
