In a letter released by the Vatican, the pope designated November 9 as a day to honor these figures of holiness, beginning with the 2025 Jubilee Year.
The space, inaugurated Oct. 31, is intended to provide practical, artistic, and spiritual information to visitors of the Vatican basilica.
The Jubilee of Hope will take place from Dec. 24, 2024 — Christmas Eve — to Jan. 6, 2026, the feast of the Epiphany.
The pope addressed thousands gathered within St. Peter’s Basilica amid renovation projects in preparation for the upcoming 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope.
In his Angelus address, the pope said that a Year of Prayer starting on Jan. 21 will be “a year dedicated to rediscovering the great value and absolute need for prayer.”
The monthly prayer intentions express the Holy Father’s concerns for humanity and the mission of the Catholic Church.
