Ħuti, “inroddu ħajr lill-Missier li għamilkom denji li tissieħbu fil-wirt tal-qaddisin fis-saltna tad-dawl. Hu ħelisna mill-ħakma tad-dlam u daħħalna fis-saltna t’Ibnu il-maħbub li bih għandna il-fidwa, il-maħfra tad-dnubiet” (Kol 1: 12-13).  L-Evanġelju ta’ San Luqa jagħtina r-rakkont ta’ wieħed mill-ewwel persuni li daħlu fis-Saltna ta’ Ġesù għax irċieva mingħand il-Mulej il-konferma għad-domanda tiegħu: “Ġesù ftakar fija meta tidħol fis-saltna tiegħek” (Lq 23:42)… Read more »

Caritas Malta qed tistieden lill‑persuni li jinsabu weħidhom jew m’għandhomx il‑mezzi biex għal sena oħra jqattgħu Milied b’dinjità u jiġu jieklu flimkien għall‑ikla tal‑Milied fil‑Kurja tal‑Arċisqof fil‑Furjana.

Pope at Audience: Only hope in Christ can give our lives meaning

26/11/2025   St Peter's Square, the Vatican

Message by Pope Leo XIV

Dear brothers and sisters, good morning and welcome!

The Pasch of Christ illuminates the mystery of life and allows us to look at it with hope. This is not always easy or obvious. Many lives, in every part of the world, appear laborious, painful, filled with problems and obstacles to be overcome. Yet human beings receive life as a gift: they do not ask for it, they do not choose it, they experience it in its mystery from the first to the last day… Read more »

Faith is received from a community, from those who believe; it is contagious – The Archbishop

Diocesan Celebration on the solemnity of Christ the King

23/11/2025   The Basilica of Chris the King, Paola

Il-messaġġ tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Xtaqt li llum f’dan il-jum solenni nitolbu t-talba tal-Kredu biex aħna bħala knisja f’Malta nkunu qalb waħda, ħsieb wieħed mal-Papa Ljun XIV li llum nieda Ittra Appostolika mill-isbaħ, sabiħa ħafna. Meditazzjoni fuq il-Kredu li għandna kemm tlabna. Dan il-Kredu, din it-talba, din l-istqarrija tal-fidi għandha storja partikolari, importanti. Din is-sena għalqet 1700 sena. Kien proprju fis-sena 325 meta fil-Konċilju ta’ Nikea, illum fit-Turkija, l-Imperatur Konstantinu mwieżen minn ommu Elena sejjaħ l-isqfijiet ta’ dak iż-żmien biex joħolqu espressjoni ta’ fidi li tkun ta’ għaqda għall-knisja li kienet laċerata minn ħafna firdiet… Read more »

Towards a new pastoral plan for the Church: Communion, Participation, Mission

23/11/2025   St John Hall, Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-Arċidjoċesi ta’ Malta laqqgħet l-assemblea djoċesana annwali bit-tema ‘Il-Knisja f’Malta llum: Komunjoni, Parteċipazzjoni, Missjoni’, li hi t-tema tal-Pjan Pastorali ġdid li qed jitħejja biex jitnieda matul is-sena d-dieħla. Dan il-pjan se jkun koordinat mill-Vigarjat Episkopali għall-Koordinament Pastorali.

Fid-diskors tiegħu, l-Arċisqof Charles Scicluna spjega l-viżjoni tal-pjan pastorali li hu bbażat fuq il-kelmiet: ‘komunjoni’, ‘parteċipazzjoni’ u ‘missjoni’ – il-bażi tas-sinodalità. Sostna kemm ta’ kuljum Malta għandha bżonn tiskopri “l-imħabba li tiġi mill-għotja tal-ħajja tagħna lil xulxin u l-ispirtu ta’ servizz” – li hi parti mill-komunjoni li għandna naspiraw għaliha… Read more »

Nerġa’ nirrepeti bħalma għamilt ilbieraħ ir-ringrazzjament u l-gratitudni tiegħi tal-preżenza tagħkom u b’mod speċjali wkoll nirringrazzja lil dawk li qed isegwuna online. L-Assemblea Djoċesana, li ħarġet mill-inizjattiva tal-mibki Monsinjur Mercieca wara s-sinodu Djoċesan, hija esperjenza li ta’ kull sena tfakkarna li aħna rridu nikbru f’familja li nimxu flimkien. Wara kollox l-ispirtu tas-sinodu huwa dan li aħna niskopru lilna nfusna familja li qegħdin fi vjaġġ flimkien: sinodos… Read more »
