In this jubilee year, we have many reasons to rejoice: we can look back with gratitude on the great things God has done in our personal lives and in the life of our community. Joy and gratitude are close companions! We pray for this inner joy—for ourselves and for all those who are united with us. It is the joy that comes from the Holy Spirit, as our Founder once described it:
“And the Spirit of joy, the Holy Spirit, wants today to make us all Vasa spiritualia; but as Vasa spiritualia, He also wants to make us Vasa laetitiae spiritualia. We want to be spiritual vessels, but even more, vessels filled to the brim with supernatural joy. And if the Spirit of God is the Spirit of heroism, then today He will also urge and impel us to the heroism of joy.”
