The Pope at Angelus: May all children of the world live in peace

Fourth Sunday of Advent

21/12/2025   St Peter's Square, the Vatican

Message of Pope Leo XIV

Dear brothers and sisters, good afternoon!

Today, on the fourth Sunday of Advent, the liturgy invites us to meditate on the figure of Saint Joseph. In particular, we see him at the moment when God reveals his mission in a dream (cf. Mt 1:18-24). Thus, a very beautiful episode of salvation history is presented, in which the protagonist, like us, is a fragile and fallible man, yet at the same time is courageous and strong in faith… Read more »

Message by Archbishop Charles Jude Scicluna

This Christmas, perhaps the most meaningful gift we can offer one another is not something wrapped, posted, or uploaded – but time, attention, compassion, and presence, says Archbishop Charles Scicluna.

At Christmas, Christians celebrate the birth of a child. But this is no ordinary birth. The Nativity proclaims a startling truth: God chose not to send a message, a signal, or an abstract idea… Read more »

Ritratt: Arċidjoċesi ta’ Malta – Ian Noel Pace

Il-messaġġ tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Eċċellenza, Onorevoli Prim Ministru, Mr Speaker, Kap ta l-Oppożizzjoni,

Kemm hi ħaġa sabiħa li aħna qed nagħtu dal-messaġġ quddiem il-presepju. Il-presepju jfakkarna li l-Iben t’Alla sar bniedem. Isem ieħor li jingħata lil Ġesú skont il-Vanġelu ta’ San Mattew huwa proprju Għemmanu-el, Alla magħna. Is-suġġeriment tiegħi għal dan il-Milied huwa li aħna nkunu qrib xulxin,  preżenti għal xulxin… Read more »

Mass on the forth Advent Sunday

21/12/2025   The Parish Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Għeżież tfal u anke l-komunità għażiża tal-Mellieħa, għadna kemm smajna silta mill-Evanġelju skont San Mattew li jħabbrilna din it-tarbija li qegħdin nistennew, x’se jkun jisimha. X’se jkun jismu dan it-tifel li se jitwieled minn Marija? X’semmietu? Ġesù. Infatti l-anġlu lil Ġużeppi fil-ħolm jgħidlu, “Inti ssemmih Ġesù” (Mt 1:21). Mela Ġesù hu isem magħżul minn Alla għall-Iben tiegħu magħmul bniedem. Għal din it-tarbija li se titwieled, diġà twieldet, imma aħna qed infakkru t-twelid tagħha… Read more »

God transforms our doubts – Bishop Galea‑Curmi

19/12/2025   The Chapel of Our Lady of Manresa, Archbishop's Curia, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Isqof Joseph Galea-Curmi

“Jien Gabrijel li qiegħed quddiem Alla. Hu bagħatni nkellmek u nwassallek din il-bxara t-tajba” (Lq 1:19). Dan huwa l-mod kif l-anġlu, li ntbagħat lil Żakkarija, jippreżenta lilu nnifsu, u nafu kif f’dan l-istess kapitlu ta’ San Luqa hemm id-dehra tal-anġlu Gabrijel lil Żakkarija kif ukoll lil Marija. Ħa nħarsu ftit lejn din id-dehra llum u l-messaġġ li jrid jagħtina, u norbtu dan mal-laqgħa li kellu Gabrijel ma’ Marija… Read more »
