“Hope does not disappoint.”

These words of Pope Francis set the theme of this Jubilee Year 2025. Blessed Chaminade was also a man filled with hope. Both the Holy Father and the Founder of the Marianist Family called on all the faithful to live an active hope, inspired by faith, and expressed through love. Pope Francis concludes his declaration: “Through our witness, may hope spread to all those who anxiously seek it. May the way we live our lives say to them in so many words: “Hope in the Lord! Hold firm, take heart and hope in the Lord!” (Ps 27:14). May the power of hope fill our days, as we await with confidence the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and glory, now and forever.”
