Jubilee 2025

For locals wanting to participate in next year’s Jubilee and unable to travel to Rome, we have good news. In anticipation of the official opening of Jubilee 2025: Pilgrims of Hope, the Catholic Archdiocese of Melbourne has revealed the 13 churches and shrines within the Archdiocese that will be designated Pilgrim Places for the purposes of the 2025 Jubilee, with the majestic St Patrick’s Cathedral serving as the principal Pilgrim Place.

The designated pilgrim places are:

· St Patrick’s Cathedral, East Melbourne

· St Mary Star of the Sea (Archdiocese Shrine of the Holy Family), West Melbourne

· St Mary MacKillop, Keilor Downs

· St Luke’s, Lalor

· St Mary Magdalene’s, Trentham

· Polish Marian Shrine, Aberfeldie/Essendon

· St Dominic’s, Camberwell East

· St Francis Xavier, Mansfield

· Sacred Heart, Croydon

· Divine Mercy Shrine, Keysborough

· Our Lady of Lavang, Keysborough

PLENARY INDULGENCES

Indulgences are a way to reduce the time a person spends suffering for sins, even after they have been forgiven. A faithful Christian can earn an indulgence for themselves or for someone who has passed away, as long as they meet certain conditions. Indulgences are a wonderful support on the great pilgrimage towards heaven. While indulgences do not absolve people of sin—that is for the sacrament of Reconciliation—they orient hearts towards God and are characterised by a mysterious interior renewal.

To receive a Jubilee plenary indulgence within the Archdiocese of Melbourne, individually or in a group, people can visit any Pilgrim Place, remain there for a suitable period of time, engage in Eucharistic adoration and meditation, then conclude their time of prayer with the Our Father, the Profession of Faith and the Hail Mary (or any other invocation to Mary the Mother of God).

By fulfilling these conditions while they are at a Pilgrim Place, the grace of the Jubilee Indulgence is granted. Normally only one plenary indulgence can be received per day, but for the duration of the 2025 Jubilee Year, pilgrims will be able to ‘pay it forward’ and obtain a second, on condition that they have carried out an act of charity offered for the souls in purgatory and received Holy Communion a second time that day.
