L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Mill-biża’ mill-prietki fl-ewwel jiem tal-ordinazzjoni tiegħu, għall-aċċettazzjoni li jkun ragħaj spiritwali għall-poplu Malti. Dan hu sommarju ċkejken tal-qadi li l-Arċisqof Emeritu Mons. Pawlu Cremona O.P. fedelment offra lill-Knisja u, fuq kollox, lil Alla. Sommarju li fih, mal-ewwel daqqa t’għajn, nilmħu li ma kienx nieqes mill-vulnerabbilità; l-istess vulnerabbilità li Cremona qatt ma staħa jesponi, għaliex fiha dejjem lemaħ il-ħidma ta’ Kristu fih innifsu.
