The Year of St Francis

2026 has been proclaimed by Pope Leo as the “Year of St Francis of Assisi” and to mark the 800th Anniversary of St Francis’ death.  The Bishop hopes that we can mark this special anniversary in the Diocese in the coming months.

We began the Franciscan Jubilee in the Diocese at St John Ogilvie’s Church, Blantyre, on Monday 2nd February, the Feast of the Presentation of Our Lord. It was the World Day of Prayer for Religious, and seemed appropriate to mark the Feast and to begin the Franciscan Jubilee with the Poor Clare Sisters, who recently moved to St John Ogilvie’s.

Bishop Toal has designated St John Ogilvie’s as a place of Pilgrimage throughout the Jubilee of St Francis.
