Did you know that the palm branch represents peace and eternal life? If you have already gone to mass today you might have been given a palm branch. During the gospel, you would have heard the story of the Crucifixion starting from the Last Supper. We get to participate in the reading of the gospel …
Press On
While we were in Gozo as a family, we decided to walk many miles into the unknown to discover new places. We were following the blue and white lined road and there were a few times when we couldn't find the colour indication and got lost, going down other roads instead. So much in fact, …
Resolutions: not so mainstream.
The week between Christmas and New Year is a period of time when everyone seems to be just floating in life. People catch up on their Christmas shopping and try to get the best bargains at the beginning of the sales, people go to lunch and dinner at different sides of the family, people go on holiday …
Are you prepared for Christmas?
It's the day before Christmas and I'm not really as prepared as I thought I'd be by the end of Advent. Nothing much has changed these 4 weeks except the amount of my money in my bank account - not to the better to say the least. Sometimes it's not about focusing too much on the preparations. …
Third Sunday of Advent: Joy
Joy. Do you think you experience joy? Being joyful means being inherently happy when everything isn't okay. Being joyful means praising Jesus in the storm. Being joyful means looking out for Jesus in everyone you meet. Being joyful means being sure of the faith and spreading the Good News to everyone because it's simply restricting …
After God’s Own Heart
Trigi (a rad guy with an awesome experience on trusting God - check out http://bit.ly/2fdJ2ef to read it) thinks that it's a good idea to post a blog post every week and keep a pattern going. So here's the one I was going to post before the election for this week. I've been attending Uni for about …
What the American election has taught me
I was going to post another blog post and I was just about to share that one but this seems to be the most recent topic in current events. Unless you've been living under a rock, you'd know that the American election has just ended and the whole process was a terrible nightmare and upon …
God Used Them: Luke and Nicholas
When I made them pose for this photo, they wanted to be included in the blog. I asked them what they would want me to write about to include them in this series. They joked that I should write that whenever I see them, they remind me of Jesus, I see Him in them and …
God Used Him: Gabriel
Coming back from Poland where we had loads of time altogether as a  group: praising God, sightseeing, singing, rollerblading, playing Werewolf, eating and praying, Malta brought us all to a sudden sense of silence. We were no longer all surrounded by each other 24/7, we no longer felt safe, in a way, sharing the same values and faith and we …
God Used Her: Mattea
Mattea was my roommate for the trip. She's one of my sisters in Christ, and I can't help but be so grateful for her friendship. Just like the rest of my cenacolo, she can share about her faith so freely and that's one reason for us becoming closer friends. In order to celebrate my birthday, …
