Procession and Mass for the Solemn Opening of the 2025 Jubilee Year

Join Bishop Walkowiak for Holy Mass to open the Jubilee Year on Dec. 29. All are welcome!

Read Bishop Walkowiak’s invitation letter: English | Spanish | Vietnamese

The liturgy will begin at 3 p.m. in the Catholic Central High School gym (319 Sheldon Blvd. SE, Grand Rapids) where we can gather and process together as pilgrims to the Cathedral of Saint Andrew (301 Sheldon Blvd. SE, Grand Rapids). The distance between the gym and the cathedral is approximately one block. Those with limited mobility who may have difficulty processing are invited to go directly to the Cathedral.

The opening Mass will be livestreamed on the diocesan website and YouTube for those who are unable to attend.
