On July 14, 2015 by mandate of Pope Francis, the Apostolic Penitentiary granted the celebration of a Jubilee Year from September 23, 2015 to September 23, 2016 in celebration of the Bicentennial of the priestly ordination of the Founder of the Missionaries of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, St. Gaetano Errico.
In each of the Communities of the Missionaries of the Sacred Hearts around the world special celebrations will be planned for the coming year. Those who join in the special functions where possible and complete the spiritual obligations set forth will obtain a Plenary Indulgence. It is hoped that these activities of this special Jubilee year will help the faithful to know and grow closer to our beloved Founder, St. Gaetano.
