SUMMARY:Solemnity of Mary\, Mother of God
DESCRIPTION:The Solemnity of Mary\, Mother of God is a liturgical feast day honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary’s motherhood in the wake of the birth of the baby Jesus Christ. The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains the basis for this title for Mary. “Called in the Gospels ‘the mother of Jesus\,’ Mary is acclaimed by Elizabeth\, at the prompting of the Spirit and even before the birth of her Son\, as ‘the mother of my Lord.’ This is also the Octave of Christmas\, or the 8th day of Christmas. This is a holy day of obligation. Please check your parish bulletin or website for the schedule of Masses.

SUMMARY:Mass to Open Jubilee Year 2025
DESCRIPTION:You’re Invited to Open the Jubilee Year with Bishop da Cunha \nOn Sunday\, December 29\, in union with bishops throughout the world\, Bishop Edgar M. da Cunha\, S.D.V.\, will celebrate a special Mass to open the local diocesan observance of the Jubilee Year 2025 in the Catholic Church. The Mass will take place at 3 p.m. in St. Mary’s Cathedral\, Fall River\, and the faithful from the Diocese of Fall River are invited and encouraged to take part. \nThe Mass will follow the opening of the Holy Door of St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome on Christmas Eve by Pope Francis to officially begin the Jubilee Year for the Universal Church. A Jubilee is a special year of prayer\, reconciliation\, and spiritual renewal\, ordinarily taking place every 25 years. Jubilee 2025 will have as its theme\, “Pilgrims of Hope.” \nIn a February 2022 letter\, the Holy Father Pope Francis announced 2025 as a Jubilee Year for the Universal Church\, announcing as the theme\, Pilgrims of Hope. Pope Francis stated\, ” “We must fan the flame of hope that has been given us and help everyone to gain new strength and certainty by looking to the future with an open spirit\, a trusting heart and far-sighted vision. The forthcoming Jubilee can contribute greatly to restoring a climate of hope and trust as a prelude to the renewal and rebirth that we so urgently desire…” \nThe Jubilee Year will offer the faithful opportunities to participate in various jubilee events at the Vatican and in their own dioceses. Look for forthcoming information on additional opportunities to become a ‘Pilgrim of Hope’ through your own participation in Jubilee Year observances. \nVisit the Vatican Jubilee Year website here\nVisit the USCCB website for information here \nRead Bishop da Cunha’s December 18th Blog Post on the Jubilee Year.
