The Pope has approved the motto Pilgrims of Hope as the theme of the 2025 Jubilee Year. “Like every motto,” said Archbishop Rino Fisichella, president of the Pontifical Council for the New Evangelization, “the meaning of the entire Jubilee journey begins with the terms chosen to condense it and this motto brings out two words that are key themes of the pontificate of Pope Francis.” The Archbishop, who will be in charge of the organization of the Jubilee, stressed that much needs to be done in the coming months. “The need is to have a solid preparatory impact in order to create an efficient organizational machine,” he said. “One of our priorities is how to welcome the faithful, since a large number of pilgrims are expected to visit Rome during the Holy Year.» He added that everyone is hoping that, two years from now, the health emergency the world is currently experiencing will no longer affect movement and activities the way it is presently doing.
