Jubilee Year of Mercy – Plenary Indulgence
An interesting and pertinent subject in this “Year of Mercy”, but what exactly is a Plenary
Indulgence, and what is the Year of Mercy? I found the following definition which comes
from the United States Catholic Conference of Bishops website. http://www.usccb.org/
beliefs-and-teachings/how-we-teach/new-evangelization/jubilee-of-mercy/frequently-asked
-questions-about-the-jubilee-of-mercy.cfm
What is a jubilee year?
The practice of a jubilee year has ancient roots in the Jewish tradition and
evidence for it can be found in the Old Testament. The jubilee year was called
every fifty years and was a time for forgiveness. It stood as a reminder of God's
providence and mercy. The dedication of a year for this emphasis provided the
community with a time to come back into right relationship with one another and
with God. As the practice of the jubilee year was adopted into the Catholic
Church, these themes of mercy, forgiveness, and solidarity continued.
How is this Jubilee different from other Jubilee years?
The Jubilee of Mercy that Pope Francis has called, from December 8, 2015 –
November 20, 2016, is an Extraordinary Jubilee. This designation as an
"Extraordinary Jubilee" sets it apart from the ordinary cycle of jubilees, or holy
years, which are called every 25 years in the Catholic Church. By calling for a
holy year outside of the normal cycle, a particular event or theme is
emphasized. For example, Pope Francis called this particular Extraordinary
Jubilee of Mercy to direct our attention and actions "on mercy so that we may
become a more effective sign of the Father's actions in our lives . . . a time when
the witness of believers might grow stronger and more effective".
After reading the above perhaps you have a better understanding of this Jubilee Year of
Mercy, but what is a Plenary Indulgence? This may be a little more complicated, so carefully read the following which came from the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help.
What is a Plenary Indulgence?
An indulgence is the remission in the eyes of God of the temporal punishment
due to sins, the guilt of which has been absolved through the Sacrament of
Reconciliation. The Christian faithful who are rightly disposed and observe the
definite, prescribed conditions gain this remission through the effective
assistance of the Church. A plenary indulgence frees a person from all of the
temporal punishment due to sins and may be gained only once on any one day.
Indulgences are only applicable to oneself and to the dead.

Now that we have a better understanding of how to gain an indulgence, how do we go
about obtaining an indulgence? Here are some suggestions.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
By having the intention of acquiring the indulgence,
going to confession (before or after the visit),
receiving Holy Communion (before or after the visit),
making a profession of faith,
praying for the Holy Father and for the intentions that he bears in his heart for
the good of the Church and of the entire world,
be truly free form all attachments to sin,
while doing any of the following:
a. By visiting one of the following Diocesan Doors of Mercy;
- St. Francis Xavier Cathedral, Green Bay, WI
- Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help, Champion, WI
- National Shrine of St. Joseph, Old St Joseph’s Church, De Pere, WI
b. By personally performing one or more of the Spiritual and Corporal
Works of Mercy.
I pray each of us consider this opportunity given to us by Pope Francis, and as he clearly
stated:
"Here, then, is the reason for the Jubilee: because this is the time for mercy. It is the
favorable time to heal wounds, a time not to be weary of meeting all those who are
waiting to see and to touch with their hands the signs of the closeness of God, a time
to offer everyone, everyone, the way of forgiveness and reconciliation”.

flourish in its’ mission which is: To provide an adequate
spiritual and catechetical formation for our youth, so they
may enter the world equipped with grace, knowledge, and
a relationship with our heavenly Father.”

JESUS & COMPANY
IT WAS really great to watch all you Seniors live out your
graduation day last Sunday (June 5). It all started when you
began the day with the Mass at 10 am as all your smiling
faces showed up to share this God-time with each other for
the last time as a group. Then your families got you posed on
the church steps for pictures. It was a beautiful site...even
without a camera. Then we took a short break before we
were able to see you parade into the gym at 1:00 pm to
really make this YOUR day! So now you will move on with
your lives (with diplomas in hand) and search out new challenges in which-ever direction you choose to go. Yes, your
faces are now on the Memories Wall in the Upper Room taking their place alongside the memory–makers that have gone
on ahead of you. We just hope you will give us the joy and
pleasure to move away slowly by still spending some
Wednesday nights with us before you pack your bags to
move out into your new worlds that will excite you. So to
each of you….have a great life and come to see us when
you can. Just because you are “old” doesn’t mean you aren’t
welcome….the door is always open and we don’t check for
proof of age!
THOSE BLANK sign-on sheets on the table are starting to
scare us a bit. We are still planning on our trip to Champion
and the Shrine (Our Lady of Good Help). That’s on July 13
and it will be a Wednesday-all-day. This is special because
we want to do another prayer session for 3 of our own. If for
some reason we can’t get this to happen we will set a prayer
session for them in church after our July Youth Mass. But the
power of prayer is really powerful at the Shrine...so let’s
make it happen, OK?
LET’S NOT forget our Youth Mass on June 18th! Maybe this
will give us a chance to get our new 7th graders involved,
too. We saw quite a few of them involved in the Children’s
Masses last year so let’s hope they still want to be involved.
And do you remember….we just lost some very good Seniors last week….maybe we can ask them to stay on to help
and be a part of us through the summer. But the important
thing right now is….we need names-we need names!
OUR SECRET angel is starting to brighten up our Mary Garden. Actually, there were 2 or 3 other angels that swooped
down with financial gifts in their hands for us to buy lots of
flowers. Well, it’s happening. By the time you read this Mary
will have hopefully returned to her Garden to enjoy the view.
That’s if we can find some big/strong guy to carry her to her
place of honor in her Garden.
CONSIDER THIS as an invitation. If your Wednesday nights
in your busy summer find an open spot one day how about
stopping in at the Room….the door is always open!
JESUS - you certainly know how to get our attention!
