What is the Year of Mercy?
A living sign of the
Father's love in the world
~
Pope Francis has long made mercy one of the primary focuses of his papacy.
Because he has sought to reach those in the fold as well as those on the periphery, the pope declared that the Jubilee of Mercy will begin on December 8, 2015 (the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary) and conclude on November 20, 2016 (the Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe).
It’s a special, holy year which will focus on the breadth of God’s mercy and forgiveness.
Join our flagship ministry Franciscan Media
