Pope Francis and the Papacy
A Jubilee or Holy Year is a year that the Pope convokes periodically since 1300.
It is a year of forgiveness and reconciliation, in which people are invited to come back into right relationship with God, along with other important milestones for the Catholic Church.
The theme for the Jubilee Year in 2025 is "Pilgrims of Hope" and will begin on December 24, 2024. It marks the hope for a world suffering the impacts of war, the ongoing effects of COVID-19 pandemic and climate crisis.
