Pope Leo XIV has announced a “Special Year of St. Francis” marking the 800th anniversary of the saint’s death. This period of grace runs until January 2027 and offers the faithful the opportunity to receive a plenary indulgence.

The Franciscan Jubilee Year, a gift to the whole Church and a call to genuine spiritual renewal, officially began on Jan. 10 with a decree from the Apostolic Penitentiary of the Holy See.

This inspiring pilgrimage to Assisi offers a profound spiritual experience, staying in a peaceful convent overlooking the Umbrian valley on a half-board basis, with daily Mass, guided visits, and generous free time for personal prayer and reflection. Walk in the footsteps of St Francis and St Clare, visiting the Basilica of St Francis, the Porziuncola at Santa Maria degli Angeli, San Damiano, the Hermitage of the Carceri, the Basilica of Santa Chiara, and the Cathedral of San Rufino, as well as the shrine of Saint Carlo Acutis. The journey includes a day visit to Siena, exploring Piazza del Campo, Siena Cathedral, and the Sanctuary of St Catherine of Siena, offering a harmonious blend of faith, history, and renewal.
