The Jubilee Year of Mercy starts on December 8, 2015. It will be a year to heed Pope Francis’ call to “gaze even more attentively on mercy, so that we may become a more effective sign of the Father’s action in our lives.” Pope Francis has encouraged the Church to make its mission to be a witness of mercy to all people, saying, “No one can be excluded from God’s mercy.”
