Here is a series of talks by the priests on the Jubilee Year of the Hastings Deanery during Lent of 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 (chapter 25) as a special year of reconciliation, pilgrimage, and coming home. Pope Francis has designated the 2025 Holy Year as a time to renew ourselves as “Pilgrims of Hope.” Please join us to learn more about how to celebrate this year’s Jubilee!
Pope Francis’ Bull of Indiction on the Jubilee can be found here:https://www.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/bulls/documents/20240509_spes-non-confundit_bolla-giubileo2025.html.
