Officially started with the opening of the Holy Door of St. Peter’s Basilica on 24 December 2024, the Jubilee 2025 is the 27th ordinary universal jubilee in the history of the Church and the second jubilee inaugurated by Pope Francis after the extraordinary one in 2015.
The entire jubilee period is characterized by a rich calendar of religious, cultural and social events. Aside from celebrations and rituals addressed to all the faithful, the Holy Year’s program includes several “jubilees” dedicated to different categories of people, identified according to specific professions or their role within the family, the Church and society. Each one includes moments of dialogue and spirituality, with a concluding mass celebrated by the pope or his delegate.
The days from 4 to 5 October are dedicated to all lay and religious missionaries, pastoral workers, Fidei Donum missionaries and missionary organizations. The Jubilee of the Missions will start on the morning of Saturday 4 October with a meeting with the Pope in St Peter’s Square (at 10 a.m.) and a pilgrimage to the Holy Door of St Peter's Basilica. In the afternoon, Piazza di Spagna will host cultural, artistic and spiritual activities in dialogue with the city. The following day, St. Peter’s Square will host the morning Mass at 10 a.m., presided over by Cardinal Luis Antonio Gokim Tagle, Pro-Prefect of the Dicastery for Evangelization. In the afternoon, the International Missionary Meeting will take place in the Aula Magna of the Urbaniana University.
