Bishop Joseph Galea-Curmi delivers homily

Bishop Joseph Galea-Curmi told candidates receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation that God's love is a gift rather than a salary that can be earned or competed for.

During his homily, the bishop explained that the Gospel parable of workers in a vineyard is about grace rather than industrial relations. He noted that while people often compare their efforts and calculate fairness, God's generosity exceeds human calculations.

Bishop Galea-Curmi addressed the diverse backgrounds of those being confirmed, noting that some grew up with faith while others arrived at this moment after long journeys or periods where faith was less important. He concluded that it is never too late for God to call individuals to his vineyard.
