ALEXANDRIA, La. (KALB) - The Catholic Church is in the middle of what is called a Jubilee Year. Bishop Robert Marshall and Deacon Richard Mitchell, with the Diocese of Alexandria, are promoting this time of celebration by encouraging a prayerful pilgrimage throughout Central Louisiana. Before his death, the late Pope Francis announced that 2025 will be a Jubilee Year, which is a year of celebration, joy and grace. This happens every 25 years.
