Bishop José Antonio Satué presides over Eucharist
Bishop José Antonio Satué presided over the Eucharist to mark the start of the academic year at the diocesan theological centers in Málaga. The Mass was concelebrated by Javier Guerrero, Salvador Gil, José Emilio Cabra, Rafael Vázquez, Juan Manuel Ortiz, Miguel Ángel Criado, Jesús Hurtado, and various priests connected to the diocesan centers. During his homily, Bishop Satué described theological study as a valuable but difficult commitment to balance alongside other daily responsibilities. He noted that time dedicated to theology arises from believing contemplation and seeing through the eyes of God amidst a noisy world. He also characterized theological formation as a local Church experience involving professors, priests, and laypeople sharing reflection and conversation to better understand the life of the diocese.

Diocese of Málaga helps four families migrate to rural areas
The Diocese of Málaga has helped four families move to a rural village through the Mesa del Mundo Rural initiative. Pilar Gallardo, the diocesan delegate for migrations, said the process involves introducing families to local realities, including job opportunities, housing conditions, and available support networks. She noted that local parishes, Cáritas, and welcoming communities are prepared to receive these families. Paqui Gil, the coordinator for Cáritas of Ronda and Serranía, said successful integration requires constant coordination between parishes, city councils, social services, and other local groups. One participant, a single mother named Laura, reported that the move from a small studio to a larger apartment has provided her and her children with peace and safety from domestic violence.
