"We remember Pope Francis who proclaimed the Jubilee to celebrate ‘the Hope that does not disappoint’. This is the season of hope... inviting us to discover the joy of meeting the Lord, calling us to spiritual renewal, and committing us to the transformation of our world."
Before we can extend mercy to others, we must first receive it ourselves.
When we approach the Eucharist, we must do so with a heart prepared to receive Him worthily.
My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.
“When we celebrate Jubilee, we should remember these three things: remember the past, focus on today, and plan for the future,” said Bishop Henry Eikhlein of Pathein Diocese.
The Thanksgiving Mass was celebrated by the newly ordained priest, Fr. Dominic Aung San Htay, at 7:00 am on June 16, 2025, at St. Joseph Church, Thayetchaung parish, Pathein diocese.
"The wounds of Christ are our healing; the insults Christ bore are our glory." (St. Augustine)
Jesus teaches us that prayer is not about empty words or lofty rhetoric. It is about heartfelt communication with our Father.
“Jubilee is a time for renewal of the commitment to the families. Children have to renew their commitment, love, and honor for their parents. Grandparents should impart their wisdom to the young people. The Church should renew its pastoral care to the families, to listen and accompany them. Government and Society should renew their commitment to the families, to protect, to encourage the families,” Bishop Raymond Wai Lin Tun emphasized.
When we give from our hearts, we not only bless others but also open ourselves to receive God’s abundant blessings.
