Celebrate the Jubilee Year of Hope with Us!
A Jubilee Year is a rare and meaningful opportunity, celebrated every 25 years, for faithful Catholics to deepen their faith—and to obtain a plenary indulgence. On Thursday, March 13, 2025, Our Lady Queen of Martyrs R.C. Church is a designated Lenten and Jubilee pilgrimage site in our diocese, offering a day filled with prayers and reflections, Mass, and Eucharistic adoration. There is a plenary indulgence attached to visiting our shrine church on this day. We invite you to experience this sacred time with us. Bring a friend and share the blessings of this extraordinary 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope.
