Spes Salvi

Il-Papa Benedittu XVI, illum il-Gimgha 30 ta' Novembru 2007, ippublika t-tieni Enciklika tieghu bl-isem ta' "Spes Salvi". Kif jindika l-isem stess din titratta fuq xi t-Tama nisranija. Niftakru li l-ewwel enciklika tal-Papa kienet "Deus Caritas Est" li titkellem fuq l-Imhabba nisranija. Wiehed jistenna li aktar 'il quddiem l-istess Papa jikteb enciklika dwar il-Fidi nisranija. F'dan il-link hawn l-enciklika l-gdida bl-ingliz. Nissuggerixxi li taqrawha ghax hija ghajn ta' taghlim safi dwar dak li d-dinja ghandha bzonn illum il-gurnata: tama li ssalva.

Hoy, el dia 30 de Noviembre de 2007, el Papa Benedicto XVI ha publicado su segunda enciclica: "Spe Salvi". Como su nombre indica, la enciclica habla de la esperanza cristiana. Recordamos que la primera, "Deus Caristas Est" se trata el tema del Amor cristiano. Intuimos que proximamente escribira sobre la Fe. En este link mas abajo podeis encontrar la enciclica en español. Os sugiero leerla porque es una fuente rica de bondad, es lo que nuestro mundo necesita hoy en dia: esperanza que salva.

Святый Боже ('Holy God') Зарю бьют ('Dawn Strikes') The dawn beats. From my hand my shabby copy of Dante falls to the ground. On my lips, the half-pronounced verse ceases to shape meaning. - My soul flies far off. - Familiar, everyday living sound, although you often radiate far out, I shrink away - into my silent sense of age.

The Presentation of Our Lady in the Temple

Image
The solemn dedication of the Church of the Mother of God near the Temple in Jerusalem took place on November 21, 543; this felicitous association of the Mother of God with the Temple supports the ancient tradition of the Blessed Virgin Mary's presentation in the Temple as a child. Saint John Damascene -- interpreting the Holy Name of Mary as "Lady" -- tells us that the "Lady of every creature and the Mother of the Creator . . . first saw the light in Joachim's house, hard by the Pool of Bethesda, at Jerusalem, and was carried to the Temple." Secundum Verbum Tuum In the hidden recesses of the old Temple, the Holy Spirit prepares the new Temple, the all-holy Virgin, to become the Mother of God . She who is destined to be the living Temple of the Word dwells in the Temple of the Old Dispensation. She hears the chanting of the psalms, the prophets, and the Law. Was it there that she learned Psalm 118, the long litany of loving surrender to the Word? And was i

The Church in Iraq

In Iraq the very survival of one of the world’s oldest Christian communities now hangs in the balance. Continuing attacks against the faithful have prompted successive waves of emigration. According to UN reports in 2010, of the 1.6 million Iraqi refugees abroad, up to 40 percent were thought to be Christians. According to some of the country’s most senior bishops, over the past decade the number of Christians haemorrhaged from nearly 900,000 to perhaps fewer than 200,000, a rate of decline far steeper than official figures suggest. By 2011, some sources gave an even lower figure for the number of Christians left in Iraq. Nor does there seem any end in sight to the problem, with Christian emigration continuing unabated. Catholic leaders said the number of Christians remaining in Baghdad by early 2011 would be a mere fraction of the 200,000 living there at the start of 2003. Even more Christians fled the city after the 31st October 2010 siege of Baghdad’s Our Lady of Salvation Syr
