The Office of Radio & Television and WJMJ Radio invite you to join Father John Gatzak on a special pilgrimage tour to Italy in celebration of Jubilee 2025: The Holy Year of the Roman Catholic Church.
The Jubilee is a special year of grace, in which the Catholic Church offers the faithful the possibility of asking for a plenary indulgence, that is, the remission of sins for themselves or for deceased relatives. A Jubilee usually lasts a year and a few days: it begins just before the Christian Christmas and ends on the Epiphany of the following year.
We still have a few seats remaining for this Jubilee year pilgrimage. So, don't miss this opportunity to be among the first to see Pope Leo XIV, the Church's first American born pope!
Florence, Assisi & Rome, October 26 to November 6, 2025 (12 Days)
