THE JUBILEE YEAR OF THE CHURCH
In the ancient Hebrew tradition, the Jubilee Year, which was celebrated every 50 years, was meant to restore equality among all of the children of Israel, offering new possibilities to families which had lost their property and even their personal freedom. The Catholic tradition of the Holy Year began in 1300. From 1475 onwards – in order to allow each generation to experience at least one Holy Year – the ordinary Jubilee was to be celebrated every 25 years. However, an extraordinary Jubilee may be announced on the occasion of an event of particular importance. The Catholic Church has given to the Hebrew Jubilee a more spiritual significance. It consists in a general pardon, an indulgence open to all, and the possibility to renew one’s relationship with God and neighbor. Thus, the Holy Year is always an opportunity to deepen one’s faith and to live with a renewed commitment to Christian witness. Pope Francis notes that the Jubilee Year, which began on Christmas Eve, calls us to be Pilgrims of Hope, and he encourages everyone to choose love in a world beset with wars, social injustices, and various forms of violence. “We choose love, and love makes our hearts fervent.”
The Marian Shrine located, in Haverstraw, has been designated as one of the official pilgrimage sites in the Archdiocese of New York.+THE JUBILEE INDULGENCE+
The Jubilee Indulgence is specific to a Jubilee Year. Plenary indulgences, obtained during the Jubilee Year, can also be applied to souls in purgatory making it possible to obtain two plenary indulgences in a day with one being applied for the deceased. The Vatican has detailed how to obtain a plenary indulgence – removing temporal punishment for sin through Christ’s merits - during the Jubilee Year.
Requirements:
A person must be baptized, not excommunicated, and in the state of Grace when performing the work of the indulgence.
A person also has to have a sincere intention of gaining the indulgence before doing the particular work associated with it.
+Detachment from sin (even venial)
+Confession within about 20 days
+Receive Holy Communion
+Pray for the Holy Father’s intentions (e.g. an Our Father and Hail Mary.)ARCHCARE

Prayer to the Virgin Mary for our ProtectionO Mary, you shine continuously on our journey as a sign of salvation and hope.
We entrust ourselves to you,
Health of the Sick.
At the foot of the Cross you participated in Jesus’ pain, with steadfast faith.
You, Our Lady of New York,
know what we need.
We are certain that you will provide, so that, as you did at Cana of Galilee,
joy and feasting might return after this moment of trial.
Help us, Mother of Divine Love,
to conform ourselves to the Father’s will
and to do what Jesus tells us:
He who took our sufferings upon Himself, and bore our sorrows to bring us,
through the Cross, to the joy of the Resurrection. Amen.We seek refuge under your protection,
O Holy Mother of God.
Do not despise our pleas – we who are put to the test – and deliver us from every danger,
O glorious and blessed Virgin.
PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF UKRAINE and RUSSIA
and I think we can include Israel and Palestine, too!“My heart aches greatly… And now I would like to appeal to everyone, believers and non-believers alike. Jesus taught us that the diabolical senselessness of violence is answered with God’s weapons, with prayer and fasting. May the Queen of Peace preserve the world from the madness of war.” Pope Francis, February 23,2022
God of peace and justice,
we pray for the people of Ukraine [and the World] today.
We pray for peace and the laying down of weapons.
We pray for all those who fear for tomorrow,
that Your Spirit of comfort would draw near to them.
We pray for those with power over war or peace, for wisdom, discernment and compassion to guide their decisions.
Above all, we pray for all Your precious children, at risk and in fear,
that You would hold and protect them.
We pray in the name of Jesus, the Prince of Peace.
