  Maria Regina College, Mosta Secondary, Żokrija

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Nirringrazzjakom ħafna, li għażiltu li tiġu għal din il-quddiesa, u li għandi ċans, inkellimkom xi ftit. L-ewwel kelma li nixtieq ngħidilkom hi kelma ta’ kuraġġ għax ħafna drabi jiġru affarijiet f’ħajjitna li jaqtgħulna qalbna. Jew ma nkunux ċerti li hemm xi ħadd li tassew iħobbna u jkollna bżonn kbir, li aħna nħossuna maħbubin; li xi ħadd hu tassew ħabib jew ħabiba; li xi ħadd hemm barra, jew qrib tiegħi, jagħti kasi u jimpurtah minni… Read more »

Mass on the sixth Sunday of Easter

  Church of the Holy Cross, Floriana

L-omelija tal-Arċisqof Charles Jude Scicluna

Fl-Evanġelju tal-lum skont San Ġwann, fis-sitt Ħadd tal-Għid, nisimgħu espressjoni sabiħa: “Ibqgħu fl-imħabba tiegħi” (Ġw15:9). Kemm hi  stedina sabiħa din li għamel Ġesù.

L-ewwel nett jassikura li l-inizjattiva ġejja minnu, u dil-ħaġa hemm bżonn niftakruha. Wara kollox qed niċċelebraw staġun ta’ ferħ, li jitwieled fil-ġimgħa l-Kbira u fl-Għid il-Kbir. “Kif ħabbni Missieri hekk ħabbejtkom jiena” (Ġw15:9).

Ġesù qed jgħidilna ċar u tond li jekk hemm xi kelma fil-Vanġelu li hemm bżonn niftakruha hija din il-kelma: “Kif ħabbni Missieri hekk ħabbejtkom jien” (Ġw15:9) … Read more »
