Jubilee 2025


2025 is the Jubilee Holy Year, the 2,025th anniversary of the Incarnation of our Lord, an "event of great spiritual, ecclesial, and social significance in the life of the church." The concept of "Jubilee" has its origins in the Book of Leviticus as a special year of reconciliation, pilgrimage, and a coming home. Pope Francis has designated the Church in which she celebrates the year of messianic favor inaugurated by Christ through his Incarnation and Paschal Mystery. Proclaimed every 25 years since the 13th century, the celebration of jubilee years typically includes pilgrim, processions, celebrations of Mass, and an invitation to the Sacrament of Reconciliation. These celebrations are opportunities to receive the Lord's mercy. The theme for this Jubilee is Pilgrims of Hope.
The Holy Door- The Lord Jesus is the door of our salvation, a fact which is symbolized through the spiritual practice of passing through specially designated doors of various churches. The Ordinary Jubilee began with the opening of the Holy Door at St. Peter's Basilica on December 24, 2024. This door is also called the "Door of the Great Pardon". Its panels portray scenes of man's sin and his redemption through God's mercy.
