Lenten Reflections 2022 – First Sunday

05/03/2022

Reflection for the first Sunday of Lent by Archbishop Charles Scicluna

Gospel: Lk 4:1-13

Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the devil.

The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become a loaf of bread.” Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘One does not live by bread alone.’”

Then the devil led him up and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world… Read more »

Caritas Malta calls for humanitarian response

28/02/2022

Fuq talba tal‑Isqfijiet ta’ Malta u Għawdex, Caritas Malta f’kollaborazzjoni ma’ Caritas Internationalis, qed tappella għal donazzjonijiet ta’ flus b’risq il‑poplu tal‑Ukrajna li bħalissa għaddej minn tbatija kbira minħabba l‑gwerra. Din hi waħda mill‑inizjattivi li l‑Knisja f’Malta qed tieħu biex tgħin lill‑poplu Ukren.

Madwar tliet miljun persuna Ukrena għandhom bżonn għajnuna umanitarja wara l‑attakki mir‑Russja li bdew fl‑24 ta’ Frar. L‑attakki mill‑armata Russa għamlu diversi ħsarat f’diversi bliet fil‑Lvant tal‑Ukrajna, fosthom fil‑kapitali Kiev, fejn ġew ibbumbardjati djar, appartamenti, sptarijiet u skejjel. 

Caritas Malta qed tappella għad‑donazzjonijiet biex permezz ta’ Caritas Internationalis tingħata l‑assistenza tant meħtieġa f’dan il‑pajjiż… Read more »
