Pope Francis has dedicated this year to be a Jubilee year dedicated to Hope. It is the Holy Father’s desire that we see ourselves on a pilgrimage of hope that we walk with each other. In his Papal Bull, Spes non confundit, Hope does not disappoint, Pope Francis reminds us how hope is deeply rooted in our faith. From the very beginning, St. Paul reminds us of the hope that we all live with because of the salvific actions of Jesus. This hope has been passed down through the centuries and is still with us today. We experience this Hope in the celebration of the sacraments and in those small moments of prayer we have every day. In the uncertainty that we find ourselves in, we need this reminder that the Hope that comes from our faith does not diminish because of the challenges we face. During this Jubilee year, let us make an effort to renew our lives with this hope. There will be plenty of opportunities in the Archdiocese to celebrate this Hope. We can make a visit to one of the shrines that is in the Archdiocese. We can visit those parishes where we were baptized, or ones that hold a special place for us on this pilgrimage of Hope. The more we open our hearts and minds to the Hope that Christ offers each of us, the better we will be able to rise above all the chaos that seems to grip our society. Let this be the time that we reclaim the Hope that comes from our faith.
