L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
It-talba li jagħmlu l-Appostli lil Ġesù hija talba attwali ħafna. Min jaf kemm-il darba intom stess meta tħarsu lejn uliedkom, lejn ulied uliedkom, lejn iż-żgħażagħ tal-lum, tgħidu: imma x’sar minnha l-fidi li kellna aħna meta konna f’din l-iskola?
Għaliex iż-żgħażagħ tagħna mhumiex daqshekk imħeġġa u lanqas imħajra, tipprova tipperswadihom biex imorru l-quddiesa l-Ħadd u qisek qed titkellem b’lingwa li ma jistgħux jifhmuha, jew inkella tħossok wieħed minn dawk id-dinożawri li t-tfal tat-tfal jieħdu pjaċir jilagħbu bihom… Read more »

Message by Bishop Joseph Galea-Curmi

Concrete keeps spreading, natural spaces are vanishing, and the sea itself bears the wounds of pollution and slime.
