‘Eternity Is Before Us,’ Nun Says to Pope Leo XIV in Jubilee Speech
- On June 9, 2025, Pope Leo XIV led a procession carrying the wooden Jubilee cross through the Holy Door into St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City for the Jubilee of the Holy See.
- This celebration took place on the liturgical memorial honoring the Virgin as a maternal figure to the Church, thereby connecting the Jubilee to her exemplary role in nurturing the Church’s mission, which is grounded in holiness and grace flowing from the Cross.
