"As Catholics... as Christians, we are pilgrims on a journey, actually a great adventure which leads towards Heaven. We travel along with hope... Christian hope. Our hope is not a "wish" but rather an assurance that all Jesus taught is true and the greatest truth is that He is the "way, the truth and the life...".
We're not alone.
We need not ever be afraid.
We strive daily to surrender our wills with His will. This brings us peace of soul and a deep joy."
Deacon Michael, OblSB

THE VATICAN WEBSITE FOR THE JUBILEE
Pope St Paul VI opens the Holy Door at St Peter's Basilica in 1975
during that Holy Year. The Holy Door is only opened every 25 years.
The door is symbolic of God opening the door to His heart to His very being. Walk through the door. In Rome you can. Elsewhere walk through it in spirit.
God invites you to Himself.
You are a treasure to Him and of great value. Accept His invitation.
