Is-seba’ u l-aħħar riflessjoni dwar Patris Corde tal-Papa Franġisku hi mill-Arċisqof Charles Scicluna fuq it-tema Ġużeppina ‘Missier Veru.’ L-Arċisqof Scicluna jirrifletti fuq ir-rwoli tal-omm u l-missier, li għalkemm differenti, huma t-tnejn tant essenzjali għall-formazzjoni ta’ kull persuna. L-Arċisqof ifakkarna wkoll li anke meta l-ġenituri ma jkunux preżenti f’ħajjitna, il-paternità tal-Missier li hu fis-smewwiet tibqa’ dejjem ix-xempju tal-ħniena u ta’ mħabba lejn kulħadd, hu min hu u hi min hi, għax Alla ma jiddiskriminax.
Dawn ir-riflessjonijiet huma parti minn sensiela ta’ filmati, li tħejjew minn Behold, li hu proġett ta’ Pastorali Bibblika u Liturġika fi ħdan il-Vigarjat għall-Evanġelizzazzjoni, għal tmiem is-Sena Ġużeppina 2020-2021… Read more »
The Archdiocese of Malta wishes to make clear that it could not have foreseen, let alone exercise control over, a decision in 2019 by the Land Registration Agency to permit the registration of tracts of land in Gozo which caused residents uncertainty over legal title to their homes.
This unexpected development took place two years after a legal settlement was reached between the Archdiocese and the heirs of the foundress of the Abbazia San Antonio Delli Navarra Foundation, which had administered the land since 1675, paving the way for the heirs to register these specific plots in the foundation’s name… Read more »
The proposed law on recreational cannabis does not signify progressive legislation, Dr Aloisia Camillieri, a psychiatrist, said on Sunday, as she underlined that the bill would inflict more harm on society once enacted.
Representing the Maltese Association of Psychiatry, Camilleri addressed a press conference organised by 57 organisations consisting of Church organisations, NGOs, and lobby groups, that have recently filed a petition to parliament, in a last-ditch attempt to stop a bill aimed at legalising recreational cannabis… Read more »
Is-sitt riflessjoni dwar Patris Corde tal-Papa Franġisku hi mill-Isqof t’Għawdex, Anton Teuma fuq it-tema Ġużeppina ‘Ħajja li tħalli l-frott permezz ta’ xogħol idejh.’ L-Isqof Teuma jitkellem dwar l-onestà fix-xogħol u fuq il-post tax-xogħol, u dwar kif ix-xogħol innifsu jagħti dinjità li jmur oltre l-ħlas monetarju. Ġużeppi hu eżempju ta’ kif tkun ħaddiem, mhux għall-flus biss, imma għax il-ħidma mill-qalb, ix-xogħol bħala qadi u att ta’ ġenerożità, hu l-mod konkret kif nikkoperaw mal-pjan ta’ Alla fil-ħolqien u noffru għajnuna lill-proxxmu… Read more »
Il-ħames riflessjoni dwar Patris Corde tal-Papa Franġisku hi mill-Isqof Awżiljarju u Vigarju Ġenerali, Joseph Galea-Curmi fuq it-tema Ġużeppina ‘Protettur u Reżiljenti’. L-Isqof Galea-Curmi jaqsam ħsibijietu dwar id-dixxerniment u kif fid-dawl tal-Ispirtu, aħna nagħrfu dak li Alla jixtieq minna li hu dejjem l-aħjar għalina. Il-proċess tad-dixxerniment iwassal għall-“iva” tagħa b’azzjoni u determinazzjoni.
Dawn ir-riflessjonijiet huma parti minn sensiela ta’ filmati, li tħejjew minn Behold, li hu proġett ta’ Pastorali Bibblika u Liturġika fi ħdan il-Vigarjat għall-Evanġelizzazzjoni, għal tmiem is-Sena Ġużeppina 2020-2021… Read more »
