The 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope, proclaimed by Pope Francis offers a time of grace, spiritual healing, and recommitment to the mission of the Church. With the theme “Pilgrims of Hope,” this Jubilee aims to inspire Catholics worldwide to embody and share the transformative power of hope in Christ. On Sunday, December 29, 2024, several dioceses of the Southern African Catholic Bishops Conference (SACBC) joined the Universal Church on the Feast of the Holy Family to inaugurate the Jubilee Year.

“SACBC 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope” is a podcast produced by the Southern African Catholic Bishops Conference (SACBC) Communication Office.
