Pilgrims of Hope - Jubilee Year
|
Bishop Daniel E. Thomas has decreed that Our Lady of Consolation is a pilgrimage site within the Diocese of Toledo for the 2025 Jubilee Year. All the faithful are able to obtain a plenary indulgence by visiting Our Lady of Consolation and participating in any sacred rite such as Holy Mass, celebration of the Sacraments of Initiation or Anointing, or "engage in Eucharistic adoration and meditation, concluding with the Our Father, the Profession of Faith in any legitimate form, and invocations to Mary" (Decree for the Indulgence). The full text of the decree from the Holy See can be found here. Please make sure to visit the calendar to see all of the events throughout the Jubilee Year. In our earthly pilgrimage, may we put our faith in the "hope that does not disappoint" (Romans 5:5). |
