This Sunday’s Gospel passage (see Mt 14:22-33) speaks of Jesus walking on the water of the stormy lake. After feeding the crowds with five loaves and two fish – as we saw last Sunday – Jesus commands the disciples to get into the boat and return to the other shore… Read more »

Il‑Knisja f’Malta tfakkar fl‑importanza li jiġu osservati l‑miżuri ta’ prevenzjoni ta’ tixrid tal‑imxija tal‑COVID‑19. Filwaqt li jibqgħu japplikaw il‑miżuri tad‑distanza soċjali, it‑teħid tat‑temperatura u miżuri oħra, kull min jattendi għall‑Quddies għandu r‑responsabbiltà li jilbes maskra jew visor. Dawn il‑miżuri huma konformi mal‑obbligi stipulati mill‑Awtoritajiet tas‑Saħħa dwar il‑postijiet ta’ qima, li ġew aġġornati l‑Ġimgħa 7 ta’ Awwissu 2020.

L‑Isqfijiet ta’ Malta u Għawdex ifakkru fir‑responsabbiltà kbira li nsegwu bir‑reqqa l‑miżuri għall‑ħarsien tas‑saħħa u tal‑ħajja, kemm tagħna kif ukoll tal‑oħrajn… Read more »

Dear brothers and sisters, good morning!

The pandemic continues to cause deep wounds, exposing our vulnerability. On every continent there are many who have died, many are ill. Many people and many families are living a time of uncertainty because of socio-economic problems which especially affect the poorest.

Thus, we must keep our gaze firmly fixed on Jesus (see Heb 12:2): in the midst of this pandemic, our eyes on Jesus; and with this faith embrace the hope of the Kingdom of God that Jesus Himself brings us (see Mk 1:5; Mt 4:17; CCC 2816)… Read more »
