WelCom August 2024
Pope Francis has declared 2025 as a year of Jubilee with the theme ‘Pilgrims of Hope’, to foster a greater sense of global sisterhood and brotherhood, solidarity with the poor, and caring for the environment.
In Rome, millions of pilgrims are expected to visit holy sites around the city next year. In the Archdiocese, plans are underway for Jubilee Year, which will be inaugurated on Sunday 26 January 2025 with a special Mass at Sacred Heart Cathedral. Events such as the 24 Hours of Prayer, pilgrimages, Youth Masses and formation opportunities will be announced in coming months.
