As we prepare for the joy of the Resurrection during Holy Lent, I invite you to reflect upon Saint Francis’ prayer, sacrifice and love for the poor as Pope Leo XIV proclaimed 2026 a special Jubilee Year in remembrance of the 800th anniversary of his death. Although most of us will not live out radical poverty like Saint Francis, we can still participate in his profound accompaniment and charity towards others by making a sacrificial gift.

Attached please find the Ordo for the Divine Office for 2025-2026. We are grateful to Bishop A. Elias Zaidan and to Fr. Michael Shami for their work on this.
