The Church around the world looks toward 2025 as the Jubilee Year of Hope marking the 2,025th anniversary of the Incarnation of our Lord. 

As the Holy Father explained in his February 2022 letter regarding the Jubilee Year: “We must fan the flame of hope that has been given us and help everyone to gain new strength and certainty by looking to the future with an open spirit, a trusting heart and far-sighted vision. The forthcoming Jubilee can contribute greatly to restoring a climate of hope and trust as a prelude to the renewal and rebirth that we so urgently desire…”
