Upcoming Diocesan Jubilee Events

The Catholic Church celebrates a Jubilee as a special year of grace, prayer, and renewal—an opportunity to encounter Christ more deeply. Held every 25 years, the Jubilee Year includes various Jubilee Days to honor different vocations and ministries.

Throughout 2025, the Diocese of St. Augustine will host special events to celebrate these vocations and ministries. We invite you to visit our webpage for a list of upcoming Jubilee events and participate in those that reflect your vocation or ministry!
