Special Year of St. Francis
Pope Leo XIV has declared a Special Year of St. Francis to mark 800 years since the saint’s death. Until January 10, 2027, the faithful may obtain a plenary indulgence under the usual conditions—confession, Communion, and prayer for the Holy Father—by visiting any Franciscan church or place dedicated to St. Francis. The indulgence is also available to the elderly, the sick, and those unable to leave home, who may participate spiritually through prayer and the offering of their daily challenges.
In a world marked by conflict and division, this Jubilee invites us to follow the example of St. Francis—living simply, seeking peace, and reflecting Christ’s love in daily life. The Franciscan family hopes this year will inspire all of us to become witnesses of peace and holiness
