Pilgrims on the Way of Hope: A Resource for the Jubilee of Bishops

Jubilee 2025: Pilgrims of Hope 
United States Conference of Catholic Bishops 
Jubilee of Bishops: Resource Packet 
June 25-26, 2025 

INTRODUCTION & OVERVIEW 

The Holy See has designated a number of Jubilee Days throughout 2025 to recognize and celebrate different groups of people and various ministries in the Church. The Jubilee of Bishops will be held Wednesday to Thursday, June 25-26, 2025; however, these resources can be used for engaging and celebrating the work of the bishops at any time throughout the Jubilee Holy Year. 

Though this celebration in Rome is dedicated to the bishops of the Church, this moment can be used as a chance for all Catholics to reflect more deeply on the ministry of the bishops as shepherds and successors of the apostles, guiding the Church, teaching the faith, and preserving her unity. 

This resource packet is for anyone who finds it useful. It can be used and/or adapted by dioceses, eparchies, parishes, schools, campuses, apostolates, movements, organizations, or individuals to plan a celebration of the bishops. For those who are making any type of Jubilee pilgrimage to Rome or to a particular Jubilee celebration or holy site in a diocese or eparchy within the United States during 2025, this packet can also serve as an aid in the preparation or experience of that trip. 

Additional resources for the Jubilee can be found online at the USCCB Jubilee web pages: in English at https://www.usccb.org/jubilee2025 and in Spanish at https://www.usccb.org/es/committees/ jubileo-2025.
