In 2025 the Catholic Church universal celebrates a Jubilee Year.   Pope Francis has stated that the  overarching theme of our upcoming Jubilee year is: hope.  In the papal bull declaring the year he wrote:

As we prepare to welcome Pope Francis to Canada, we invite Catholics from across the country to participate in this historic journey in a number of different ways. In addition to television coverage of papal events, visit www.papalvisit.ca or www.visitepapale.ca to access more than 10 livestream links of coverage featuring interpretation in many languages (including Indigenous languages), as well as livestream links from Vatican TV including commentary.

Archbishop Ivan Jurkovič, the Apostolic Nuncio (papal ambassador) to Canada, will be coming to Halifax to bestow the Pallium on Archbishop Dunn on Tuesday, May 31, 2022.  A Ceremony of Bestowal will take place during a special Mass that day at 3:00pm at Saint Mary’s Cathedral Basilica. Archbishop Dunn invites all to join him for this celebration.
