Prayer for Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament.
I love You above all things.
I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart… Read more »
L‑Arċidjoċesi ta’ Malta u l‑Gvern Malti ffirmaw ftehim għat‑twaqqif tal‑ewwel Fondazzjoni tal‑Akkomodazzjoni Affordabbli. Permezz ta’ dan il‑ftehim il‑Knisja u l‑Gvern se jaħdmu flimkien biex tiġi offruta akkomodazzjoni soċjali għal nies bi dħul baxx u medju. Inizjalment din l‑akkomodazzjoni se tiġi offruta b’kiri, b’rati inqas minn tas‑suq.
Il‑ftehim, li ġie ppresedut mill‑Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna u mill‑Prim Ministru Robert Abela, ġie ffirmat mis‑Segretarju Amministrattiv tal‑Arċidjoċesi ta’ Malta, Michael Pace Ross, u minn Grazio Barbara, Direttur Ġenerali tad‑Dipartiment tas‑Sigurtà Soċjali.
L‑Arċidjoċesi se tgħaddi lill‑fondazzjoni l‑Kunvent ta’ Santa Giovanna t’Ark li jinsab fiċ‑ċentru ta’ Ħal Kirkop, b’ċens temporanju ta’ 25 sena… Read more »
Dear brothers and sisters, good morning!
The evangelists Matthew and Mark refer to Joseph as a “carpenter” or “joiner.” We heard earlier that the people of Nazareth, hearing Jesus speak, asked themselves: “Is not this the carpenter’s son?” (13:55; cf. Mk 6:3). Jesus practised his father’s trade.
The Greek term tekton, used to specify Joseph’s work, has been translated in various ways… Read more »
Caritas Malta tirrikonoxxi l-għażla tal-persuni li nħatru fuq il-Bord tal-Awtorità dwar l-użu responsabbli tal-Kannabis li se jkun immexxi mis-Sinjura Mariella Dimech, bħala għażla ta’ persuni ta’ reputazzjoni u ta’ esperjenza fil-qasam tagħhom.
Filwaqt li numru ta’ persuni fil-bord kienu jaħdmu ma’ Caritas Malta fil-passat u taw kontribut siewi lis-servizzi ta’ Caritas, Caritas Malta tixtieq tiċċara li fil-bord ta’ din l-awtorità m’hemmx persuni li formalment qed jirrappreżentaw lil Caritas… Read more »
L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
Min ilbieraħ seta’ jsegwi din il-quddiesa, semagħni nitkellem fuq il-qawwa ta’ Ġesù li tgħaddi wkoll lill-Knisja permezz tal-isqof tal-post fuq ix-Xitan. Din is-silta mill-ewwel kapitlu ta’ San Mark, teħodna proprju fl-ewwel mumenti tal-ħajja pubblika ta’ Ġesù: minn Nazaret immur Kafarnahum fejn jgħaddi ġurnata u nofs li jirrakontaha San Mark. Kemm-il darba rrealizzajt, u naħseb anke intom innutajtu, li meta San Mark jitkellem fuq il-missjoni ta’ Ġesù, jitkellem fuq il-fatt li hu kien jeżerċità din il-qawwa fuq ix-Xitan… Read more »

L-IVF sar wieħed mir-realtajiet kbar fost il-koppji li jkunu jixtiequ tarbija. Fl-2012 daħlet il-liġi tal-IVF u wara ġiet emendata fl-2018. Minn dak iż-żmien ħafna koppji li kienu għadhom bla tfal u li kellhom xewqa kbira li jkollhom tarbija, bdew jaraw din il-liġi bħala bidu ta’ vjaġġ ta’ tama li jkunu huma wkoll ġenituri.
X’hemm marbut ma’ dan il-vjaġġ? X’sagrifiċċji jridu jgħaddu minnu dawn il-koppji? … Read more »
