The "Jubilee Prayer" (prayer text below), released by the Vatican for the 2025 Holy Year, is a profound spiritual petition that acknowledges faith as a divine gift and recognizes the Holy Spirit's role in igniting love within believers' hearts. It expresses a deep yearning for God's Kingdom while asking for the grace to actively spread the Gospel message throughout the world. It beautifully captures the transformative power of faith, describing how God's grace can reshape both humanity and creation itself, leading toward the promise of a renewed world where evil is overcome and divine glory reigns supreme.
The Jubilee Year 2025 begins on December 24, 2024 and continues until January 6, 2026.
*Regarding the Jubilee Year 2025 in the Catholic Church*
Pope Francis announced that 2025 will be celebrated as a Jubilee Year under the theme "Pilgrims of Hope." This will be the first regular Holy Year since 2000 (there was an extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy in 2015-2016).
Jubilee Years in the Catholic Church are special times of grace, forgiveness, and spiritual renewal, traditionally occurring every 25 years. During this time, millions of pilgrims are expected to visit Rome and pass through the Holy Doors of the major basilicas, which are only opened during Jubilee years.
*The Jubilee Prayer*
Father in heaven,
may the faith you have given us
in your son, Jesus Christ, our brother,
and the flame of charity enkindled
in our hearts by the Holy Spirit,
reawaken in us the blessed hope
for the coming of your Kingdom.
May your grace transform us
into tireless cultivators of the seeds of the Gospel.
May those seeds transform from within both humanity and the whole cosmos
in the sure expectation
of a new heaven and a new earth,
when, with the powers of Evil vanquished,
your glory will shine eternally.
May the grace of the Jubilee
reawaken in us, Pilgrims of Hope,
a yearning for the treasures of heaven.
May that same grace spread
the joy and peace of our Redeemer
throughout the earth.
To you our God, eternally blessed,
be glory and praise forever.
Amen.
