Pope Francis opens Holy Door inaugurating 2025 Jubilee
The Jubilee is a special year of grace in the Catholic Church. It is a time for renewal of faith, forgiveness and reconciliation. It is a time for their faithful to give themselves more fully to the Lord Jesus and feel His mercy and forgiveness.
The theme of Jubilee 2025 is “pilgrims of hope”, with Pope Francis calling on the world to “fan the flame of hope that has been given us”.
The Holy Father said:
“Let us pray that this upcoming Jubilee may strengthen us in our faith, helping us to recognise the Risen Christ in the midst of our lives, transforming us into pilgrims of Christian hope.”
