In preparation for the upcoming Jubilee of Consecrated Life, to be celebrated in Rome from October 8 to 12, 2025, the Dicastery for Institutes of Consecrated Life and Societies of Apostolic Life issues a special invitation to all consecrated persons. The aim is to highlight six impactful projects that offer a concrete witness of collaboration among different charisms and reflect the thematic priorities that have guided the journey of preparation for the Jubilee.

 

Project Submission Requirements:

  • Intercongregational Project: Must involve multiple institutes or charismatic families in a shared initiative.
  • Thematic Relevance: Must respond to at least one of the following three key areas:
    • Commitment to the marginalized – listening to the cry of the poor.
    • Care and stewardship of creation – environmental protection.
    • Universal fraternity – solidarity.
  • Witness Capacity: The project should clearly reflect missionary commitment and bear witness to the beauty of shared journeys within consecrated life.

    Please attach at least five or more high-quality photos; a video of up to 3 minutes, in landscape format and minimum HD quality; and optionally a presentation (.ppt) that also conveys this message through text and images.
  2. Brief descriptive text: maximum 1000 characters including spaces, structured as follows: context, mission, key aspects of the activity carried out, and some relevant data such as the number of beneficiaries or other pertinent information.
