Pilgrims of Hope: Pope Francis – Declares 2025 a Year of Jubilee

Holy Years, traditionally celebrated in the Church every 25 years since 1300, are opportunities for Catholics throughout the world to make pilgrimages to Rome and other holy places, accompanied by special prayers, indulgences, reconciliation and remission of sins. The Diocese of Trenton will celebrate the Holy Year with spiritual events and activities in the Diocese throughout the coming year. More will be announced about those activities in the coming months.

2025 Jubilee Year of Hope a year to renew your faith and receive God’s grace. The Holy Doors at St. Peter’s Basilica will open December, 24 2024 and will close January 6, 2026.

THE END OF THE YEAR RETREAT Tuesday, December 31 9:30 AM – 2:00 PM

Since God gives us life and time and is Lord over all, it seems appropriate to end the year in prayer. Francis House offers time, space and quiet for naming the graces of 2024 and expressing gratitude to God. The day will focus on our goals, hopes and desires for 2025. We reverently say farewell to 2024 and cordially welcome 2025 as a gift from God. Please bring your lunch. Donation: Love Offering

EVENING ZOOM ONLY OFF TO A PRAYERFUL START
FOCUSING THE NEW YEAR Thursday, January 2 7:00 – 8:00 PM

Start out 2025 with an evening zoom retreat to set the direction for the year. “Well begun is half done,” they say, and establishing a direction is essential for the journey. Where am I going in 2025? What is the desire of my heart, and God’s as we begin this year together? Donation: $15, includes materials.

SETTING THE DIRECTION FOR 2025 Friday, January 3 9:30 AM – 1:00 PM

A new year is born! The first task at any new birth is to name the baby! We will give 2025 a name and choose a goal or practice for each month to assure it is true to its name! Does that sound appealing, grace-filled, and helpful to you? Donation: $25, includes lunch. Zoom: $20
