SNJM Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Help! I'm getting ready for a faith formation program (RCIA) & our Pastor told me 2017 will be: The Year of Grace. (I'm in the US) Does anybody know anything about this? Is there a website, images, information? Anything you wise, active Catholics could provide would be great! Thanks in advance!

Nihil Obstat Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I thought it was the year of the monkey coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLordsSouljah Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 22 hours ago, Nihil Obstat said: I thought it was the year of the monkey coming up. I nearly choked on my coffee reading this hahahaha And hey Rose, I did some googling and it appears to be a Jewish thing that has been coming for about 800 years, the year apparently ushering in the age of the Messiah. I have no idea how accurate that is, nor if this is a good source to read up on it a bit https://gracethrufaith.com/ask-a-bible-teacher/2017-jubilee-year/ , however, it does not seem to be anticipated as such within the Church. Who knows what we may have next year, but it's sure to be good as always Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNJM Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 Thanks from r the answers. I found stuff on the Australuan Catgolic Church & nice logos, but I still can't find anything "official." Please let me know if any of you stumble across materials! Thanks! Rose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
