In 2025, the Catholic Church celebrates a Jubilee Year, with the theme 'Pilgrims of Hope' chosen by Pope Francis. This is a significant year in the life of the Church and marks a time of grace and renewal, which will be celebrated across the globe.

What is a Jubilee Year?

A Jubilee is a special year of grace, conversation, and renewal in the Church, traditionally observed every 25 years or as called by the Pope. It is a time of deep prayer, pilgrimage, and sacramental repentance. We are invited as members of a faith community to embrace holiness in our lives and become living witnesses of God's boundless mercy in the world. A Jubilee year aims to renew the hope that comes from Christ, encouraging a personal and communal journey towards God. By strengthening our relationship with God and others, we are inspired to live as signs of hope in a world that longs for renewal and peace. As ‘Pilgrims of Hope’, let us journey together in faith as a College community, inspired by the grace of this Jubilee Year. May this time of renewal strengthen us to share the message of hope and joy with everyone we meet!
