The Jubilee Year starts on December 24, 2024 with the opening of the Holy Door in Rome. The theme is Pilgrims of Hope. In our Diocese, we will celebrate a special Vigil mass to proclaim the Jubilee Year at the Cathedral on Saturday, December 28, 2024 (The Feast of the Holy Family). This significant celebration in the Catholic Church will continue throughout 2025 until the Holy Door closes on December 28, 2025. The Jubilee Year officially concludes in Rome on January 6, 2026. What is the Jubilee Year? A jubilee year is a time in which God’s holiness transforms us. The Bible indicates that the holy year was intended to be marked as a time to re-establish a proper relationship with God, with one another, and with all of creation. In 1470, Pope Paul II declared that Holy Years would be celebrated every 25 years. Holy Year, or Jubilee Year, includes special celebrations and pilgrimages, strong calls for conversion and repentance, and special opportunities to experience God’s grace through the sacraments, especially confession.
