JUBILE 2000 - We are entering the 2000th year following the first "YES" of Mary,
woman visited by an angel.
This event has become the measure of our time; years are counted as of this date.
These two thousand years of history of Christianity are "extremely important"
wrote Jean Paul II. This jubilee has become a Holy Year and a "call to conversion".
Beginning with the night of Christmas 1999, the jubilee will continue until
January 6, 2001. Let us celebrate together this jubilee, offering our hearts
to joy, pardon and unity. Let us unite in the act of prayer and laud in
thanksgiving to Mary, mother of the true life.
