23/10/2017

  • L-għada li l-Arċisqof Charles J. Scicluna appella għad-distribuzzjoni ġusta tal-ġid komuni u staqsa jek il‑ġid li qed jinħoloq fis‑soċjetà tagħna hux qed joħloq disparità ekonomika, ċifri ppubblikati mill-Uffiċċju Nazzjonali tal-Istatistika juru li qed tikber id-differenza bejn is-setgħana u l-foqra.

    L-appell tal-Arċisqof f’Jum l-Indipendenza, biex l-awtoritajiet jagħtu aktar kas ta’ dawk il‑membri l‑iktar dgħajfa tas‑soċjetà, hija aktar urġenti meta wieħed jikkunsidra li l-persuni li fl-2016 kieu fir-riskju ta’ faqar ammontaw għal 69,920, skont l-NSO…

23/10/2017

  • In these past days we have all been shaken by the barbaric killing of Daphne Caruana Galizia. I forcefully condemn the murder of a human being, whoever it might be, or whatever one thinks of him or her. God forbid that we resort to murder when we do not share the same opinion.

Inqumu kontra l-biża’

  • Ilkoll konna maħsudin bil-qtil barbaru ta’ Daphne Caruana Galizia. Nikkundannaw bl-iżjed mod kategoriku l-qtil ta’ persuna, hi min hi u irrispettivament wieħed x’jaħseb dwarha. Il-mewt tas-Sinjura Caruana Galizia hija disfatta għal pajjiżna.

Il-messaġġ tal-Arċisqof għall-Jum Dinji tal-Missjoni 2017

22/10/2017

  • Il-karba ta’ Ġesù fuq is-salib:  “Elì, Elì, lama sabaktani” li l-Evanġelista San Mattew ifissrilna bħala “Alla tiegħi, Alla tiegħi, għaliex tlaqtni” tista’ tlun il-karba ta’ eluf ta’ bnedmin imxerddin mad-dinja, li jħossu u jinsabu tassew weħidhom. Weħidhom mhux bilfors fis-sens li huma mingħajr il-preżenza ta’ bnedmin oħra madwarhom, ħadd ma japprezzahom, ħadd ma jifhem il-ħtiġijiet tagħhom u jkun lest li jaqdihom…
