Welcome Jubilee Pilgrims of Hope!
A jubilee year, also known as a “Holy Year,” is a special year in the church’s life currently celebrated every 25 years. The most recent ordinary jubilee was in 2000, with Pope Francis calling for an Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy in 2015-2016. Jubilee years have been held regularly in the Catholic church since 1300, but they trace their roots to the Jewish tradition of marking a jubilee year every 50 years. According to the Vatican website for the jubilee, these years in Jewish history were “intended to be marked as a time to re-establish a proper relationship with God, with one another, and with all of creation, and involved the forgiveness of debts, the return of misappropriated land, and a fallow period for the fields.”.
Archbishop Hartmayer has designated Mary Our Queen Catholic Church in Peachtree Corners as the Archdiocese of Atlanta’s main pilgrimage site. The pilgrimage will end on Tuesday, January 6, 2026, on the Solemnity of the Epiphany of the Lord.
