Pilgrims of Hope:
Visit the Holy Year Sites
Visiting these holy sites is one of several ways to receive a plenary indulgence this Holy Year.
The first 50 parishioners who make pious visits to each of the eight holy sites (and log their visits via the QR code available at each site) will be offered a special memento from the diocese.
Did you know a plenary indulgence removes all temporal punishment due to sin, whose guilt is forgiven? The plenary indulgence gained can be for oneself or applied to the dead.

For those cloistered, elderly, sick, caretaking, or imprisoned: we invite you to unite yourself in spirit with those making visits, recite an Our Father, a Profession of Faith, and prayers in harmony with the Holy Year and offer your sufferings and hardships to the Lord.
