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 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 »
Il-messaġġ tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
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 »

Malta’s safeguarding framework is growing more sophisticated — with stronger structures, clearer procedures, and a Church-led commission that now extends support beyond religious settings.
Yet, as experts highlighted on Attwalità on World Children’s Day, the system is still failing the people who need it most: those too afraid, too isolated, or too unaware to seek help.
Legal gaps and limited oversight leave vulnerable people exposed
Mark Pellicano, Head of Malta’s Safeguarding Commission, outlined a stark truth: while the Commission investigates reports, provides victim support, trains organisations, and develops safeguarding policies, it lacks the legal power to protect vulnerable people across all sectors… Read more »

Waqt il-programm The Handbook fuq RTK103, Fr Charles Tabone qal li l-iktar li jagħtik sodisfazzjon mhux kemm għandek flus, iżda l-użu tajjeb tagħhom. Huwa tkellem ukoll fuq ir-regħba fejn qal li din qed tmarradna u tkerrhilna pajjiż.

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna
Għażiż Andrè, inti u tippreżenta ruħek biex tiġi sistitwit akkolitu, kont tqiegħed it-talba ta’ dan l-agħma minn Ġeriko: Ġesù bin David ikollok ħniena minni (Lq 18: 38). Din it-talba hija talba profonda għaliex l-agħma rrealizza din is-sitwazzjoni radikanti imma fehem ukoll li għandu bżonn il-ħniena t’Alla.
Għalih kienet għażla li jittallab il-karità. Il-karità saret is-sostenn tiegħu u Ġesù jersaq lejh, hu u riesaq lejn Ġeriko… Read more »
