A special year of reconciliation, pilgrimage, and coming home.
Pope Francis has designated the 2025 Holy Year as a time to renew ourselves as "Pilgrims of Hope," and directed each bishop worldwide to establish jubilee sites for their Diocese.
In addition to the Cathedral of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Marian Chapel in Biloxi, he has designated Our Lady of the Gulf Catholic Church, Bay St. Louis; Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Hattiesburg; Our Lady of Victories Catholic Church, Pascagoula; Our Lady of Guadalupe Shrine at St. Paul Chapel, Pass Christian and Our Lady of La Vang Shrine at Vietnamese Martyrs Parish, Biloxi; as “sacred places of welcome and privileged spaces for the rebirth of hope” during the Jubilee Year.
With this opportunity to make a pilgrimage within our diocese, we have a BILOXI JUBILEE PASSPORT available with all the local Jubilee sites in the Diocese of Biloxi. It will also be on our diocesan website for anyone to download. We encourage you to download and print them to have for the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope.
