Jubilee Year 2025

We are ready for the Jubilee pilgrims who are converging on Rome this year. We have turned the Salotto into a Welcome Centre so they can orientate themselves before having a tour of the College. We've bought a new TV so we can show visitors the EWTN documentary about the life and history of the College.
In August 1993, a front-page article in the Catholic Pictorial appeared under the banner: “Is our man a miracle?” It was a reference to the cure of John (Jack) Traynor at Lourdes in 1923, and the possibility that this cure might officially be declared miraculous. The article added that, “Ever since the World War I veteran was cured instantaneously and dramatically during the first archdiocesan pilgrimage to the shrine of Our Lady… many have believed unquestioningly that the event was miraculous.
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of two esteemed members of our Order:
- Past Supreme Knight Pat Layden, K.C.S.G., K.H.S., of Council 429, who passed away on December 2, 2024. - Brother George Smith
of Council 150, Past Director and Past Supreme Warden, who passed away on November 24, 2024.
We ask that you keep their families in your prayers during this difficult time.
+ May they rest in peace +
