2025 has been announced as a Jubilee Year – a special year celebrated once every 25 years, recognised by Catholics around the world. This sacred occasion is a time for reflection, renewal, and rejoicing in the faith, as we celebrate God's abundant blessings and grace.
As the Holy Doors in Rome open to mark this momentous year, we want to be part of the Jubilee of Youth, and we’d love for you to join us on this incredible journey. If you’re between the ages of 19 and 29, this is the perfect opportunity to take part in a transformative experience. KYT is organizing a special Jubilee Pilgrimage that will offer moments of prayer, catechesis, and community. Together, we’ll walk in the footsteps of faith, deepening our connection with God and one another, while exploring what it means to live out our vocation as young Catholics in today’s world. During this pilgrimage, you’ll hear the inspiring message Pope Francis has for the youth of the Church, reminding us of our unique role in spreading hope, love, and joy in the world. This is a unique opportunity to reflect on the significance of the Jubilee Year, grow in your spiritual journey, and engage with other young people who share your faith and passion for the Church. Whether you’ve never been on a pilgrimage before or you’re looking to deepen your commitment, this is a journey you won’t want to miss. Join us as we celebrate this holy year, connect with fellow young Catholics, and draw closer to Christ.
