St. John’s announces its annual Novena of Grace in Honor of St. Francis Xavier, SJ. All are invited to join the Novena as we pray and are inspired by the call of Pope Francis to be “Pilgrims of Hope”. 2025 is the Jubilee Holy Year, the 2,025th anniversary of the Incarnation of our Lord, an "event of great spiritual, ecclesial, and social significance in the life of the Church." The concept of "Jubilee" has its origins in the Book of Leviticus (chapter 25) as a special year of reconciliation, pilgrimage, and coming home. Pope Francis has designated the 2025 Holy Year as a time to renew ourselves as "Pilgrims of Hope."

On the 8th Day of the Octave of Christmas and at the beginning of the new civil year, the Church celebrates Mary as the Mother of God. One of the oldest titles for Our Lady, the Greek title Θεοτόκος (Theotokos), meaning "Bearer of God" was adopted by the First Council of Ephesus (431) as an assertion of the divinity of Christ.
This will be the only Mass celebrated on January 1 and there are no scheduled confessions this day.
