As you may know, the Catholic Church is in the midst of its "Pilgrims of Hope" jubilee year! Also known as a Holy Year, a jubilee year is a special year in the Catholic Church celebrated every 25 years that focuses on forgiveness, reconciliation and renewal.
As part of the jubilee year, distinct groups of people and various ministries in the Church are recognized and celebrated. One such ministry is education.
The Jubilee of the World of Education just took place Oct. 31-Nov. 2. Our very own Principal, Tom Pickering, and Vice Principal, Stephanie Paul-Tiberio, along with school administrators throughout the Diocese of Columbus, made the pilgrimage to Rome with Bishop Fernandes for the event!
This event brought together educators, students, and all those involved in the field of education to reflect on the transformative power of learning and its impact on society. The Jubilee featured a series of discussions, workshops, and spiritual activities designed to inspire and renew the commitment to educational excellence and faith-based learning.
Highlights from the trip, captured in the photos below, include a visit to the Vatican, a tour of St. Peter's Square, a glimpse of Pope Leo XIV and prayer in the late Pope Francis' private chapel.
