Year of Jubilee- Pilgrims of Hope

Every 25 years, we have a Jubilee Year, a moment of significance in the Church when we refocus and open ourselves to special graces. This Jubilee Year is entitled ‘Pilgrims of Hope’ and starts on 24th December 2024, going through to 14th December 2025.The SVP wants to journey with you and your students throughout the Jubilee Year. Providing a Pilgrim Pack for all schools in the autumn, we hope that our resources will provide opportunities for your students to reflect on the needs of their community, consider a merciful Christ-like response and bring hope through the actions they can take.
