The ACMRO joins the Catholic Church in celebrating Jubilee 2025 with the theme: “Pilgrims of Hope.” It officially commenced on 24 December 2024 with the rite of the Opening of the Holy Door of the Papal Basilica of St Peter by Pope Francis himself and will run until 6 January 2026.
There are 36 events throughout the Jubilee Year highlighting special aspects of Church life. One of these is the Jubilee of Migrants on 4-5 October. The Jubilee of Migrants acknowledges and celebrates the gifts, contributions, and resilience that migrant communities bring to our Church and the world. It is also an opportunity to highlight the image of the Church as a place of refuge, welcome, integration, and solidarity.
The ACBC’s National Centre for Evangelisation prepared a brief resource for each event that parishes and individuals can use for personal or group prayer and reflection.
