Għeżież tfal,
Wasalna għaż-żmien tar-Randan. Dan huwa żmien li jfakkarna fit-tbatija, il-mewt u l-Qawmien ta’ Sidna Ġesù Kristu.

Dear children,
During Lent, all Christians, young and old, are invited to take the time to think about what God wants from us, and to remember how Jesus carried out His Father’s plan wholeheartedly, right up to His death on the cross.
