Tuticorin Jubilee Yātra

The Diocese of Tuticorin, Tamil Nadu, initiated the preparations for the celebration of Jubilee A.D. 2025 with a momentous Jubilee Yātra held on February 12, 2024. Led by Most Rev. Stephen Antony, Bishop of Tuticorin, the event heralded a time of personal and collective renewal for the clergy and religious of the Diocese of Tuticorin.

In his inaugural address, Most Rev. Stephen Antony underscored the significance of Jubilee 2025 as a pivotal moment for spiritual rejuvenation and communal recommitment. He emphasised the need for introspection, repentance, and reconciliation, inviting all attendees to embark on a journey of personal transformation and communal solidarity.

The Jubilee Yatra served as a platform for reflection, prayer, and fellowship, uniting clergy, religious, and lay faithful in a shared endeavour to deepen their faith and embrace the call to holiness. 

Prior to the reflection on Jubilee 2025 the clergy spent an hour before the Eucharistic Lord, invoking his blessings for the journey of hope as envisaged by the Holy Father Pope Francis.

Rev. Prof. Dr. Yesu Karunanidhi, the National Coordinator for the Jubilee 2025, animated the Eucharistic adoration and the discussion session.

Looking ahead, the Diocese of Tuticorin remains committed to fostering a vibrant and inclusive faith community, rooted in the Gospel values of love, reconciliation, and solidarity. As Jubilee A.D. 2025 unfolds, the faithful are invited to embark on a journey of grace and transformation, guided by the Holy Spirit and inspired by the example of Christ.
