We begin again
January 15, 2025 at 4:08 p.m.
Much like the beginnings that so often characterize a new year, we start anew as a people of faith in this Jubilee Year. The January issue of The Monitor Magazine features content dedicated to this special time in which the Church calls us to be “Pilgrims of Hope” and engage in ways that will help to bring about the real and meaningful changes for which Jubilees are known.
We hope that you will read about the proposals laid out by Pope Francis to lift up the ideals of Jubilee – to seek justice, mercy and peace through such actions as forgiving the debt of poor nations, eradicating the death penalty, diverting funds from military weapons to address hunger, and more. Likewise, Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M., in concert with prelates and dioceses around the world, has invited us to celebrate the Jubilee Year and build up this local Church. There is so much that we can do both as members of this faith community and individual believers.
Here are other highlights in this new edition:
BREAKING NEWS COVERAGE: Catholic response to the devastating wildfires in southern California; Parishes remember local man killed in New Orleans and State Police officer who was a 9-11 responder
