Pope Leo Declares 2026 - a Jubilee Year for St. Francis!
The Jubilee Year of Saint Francis, proclaimed by Pope Leo XIV from January 10, 2026 to January 10, 2027, marks the 800th anniversary of his death and invites Christians into a year of renewal rooted in harmony, simplicity, and care for creation and encourages the faithful to follow Francis' example of peace and holiness.
Pilgrims who visit Franciscan churches or shrines, and meet the usual conditions of confession, Eucharist, and prayers for the pope’s intentions, may receive a plenary indulgence.
This special year extends the spiritual focus after the ordinary Jubilee Year of 2025 and invites Christians to live simply, like St. Francis. This Jubilee offers a chance for profound spiritual renewal, echoing St. Francis' enduring call to live the Gospel authentically.

Important Message.
If you missed Father's homily on February 16th about the mass deportation of immigrants, please read it here. It has an important message about what is happening in the United States with the immigrants and the mass deportations taking place.
Pope Francis recently sent a strongly worded letter to the Catholic bishops of the United States in which he denounced the mass deportation of migrants…
"The journey from slavery to freedom that the People of Israel traveled, as narrated in the Book of Exodus, invites us to look at the reality of our time, so clearly marked by the phenomenon of migration, as a decisive moment in history to reaffirm not only our faith in a God who is always close, incarnate, migrant and refugee, but also the infinite and transcendent dignity of every human person." [1]
The letter also stated that the Pope disagrees with identifying the illegal status of migrants with criminality, and called on the bishops to “walk together” and defend the human dignity of the migrants in their country.
Please remember that the surest way that others will know we are Christians is by our love.
