In his continuing catechesis for this Holy Year of Mercy during his weekly General Audience, Pope Francis drew inspiration from the Gospel episode of Jesus’ dinner at the home of Simon the Pharisee. He said, “All of us are sinners, so many times we fall into the temptation of hypocrisy, believing that we are better than the other ”, but he continued, look at your sin, all of us need to look at our sins, our mistakes and look to the Lord,” because, he added, “this is the lifeline, the relationship between the sinner and the Lord.” The Pope was referring to the story from St Luke in which a woman known as a sinner comes up to Jesus, and bathes his feet in her tears and anoints them with precious perfume, but the Pharisee judges the woman by appearances…

Christians who harden their hearts and refuse to be drawn towards Christ are like orphans, without a father. That was Pope Francis message on Tuesday as he reflected on the daily readings during his homily at Mass in the Vatican’s Santa Marta chapel. Pope Francis began his sermon by recalling the question that the skeptical Jews kept asking Jesus every time he performed a miracle, preached in the temple or pointed the way to the Father: “How long are you going to keep us in suspense? …

Hija drawwa antika fil‑Knisja li l‑Insara jwieżnu Nsara oħra li jkunu għaddejjin minn mumenti iebsin. Fil‑fatt, l‑Appostlu Missierna San Pawl jgħid li l‑Insara tal‑Maċedonja u l‑Akaja għoġobhom jaqsmu ġidhom mal‑fqar fil‑Knisja f’Ġerusalemm (ara Rum 15:26).

Skont in‑Nunzju Appostoliku fl‑Ukrajna bħalissa hemm tbatija kbira…
