In June 2019 Pope Francis declared 2020 the Jubilee Year for Air travelers and Pilgrims to Shrine of Loreto. Our Lady of Loreto was named the patron saint of aviation and aviators by Pope Benedict XV in 1920. The Jubilee Year will start on December 8, 2019, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception and conclude on December 10th, 2021 the feast of Our Lady of Loreto. According to pious tradition, Mary’s house in Nazareth was flown by angels to Loreto, Italy in 1294, after a stop in Croatia, what was then Yugoslavia. This miracle is often referred to as “the Miracle of the Holy House of Loreto”.
Take in Rome (with its iconic sites, fountains, and four Major Basilicas), and attend the Papal Audience with the Holy Father. Walk in the footsteps of St. Padre Pio and St. Francis of Assisi. Not to mention time to view the Eucharistic Miracle of Lanciano. From Assisi, you will make your way to Florence – recognized as the “Cradle of the Renaissance”. Visit the marvelous Churches, buildings, and museums that make it so unique, as well as the historical relics and artistic masterpieces by the greatest masters!

Plenary Indulgence
There are three primary ways by which the faithful may obtain a plenary indulgence during a Jubilee Year. The primary way is through the means of a pious pilgrimage to any of the following places:
- Rome: Pilgrims must visit at least one of the four Major Papal Basilicas: St. Peter’s in the Vatican, St John Lateran’s, Saint Mary Major’s, and St. Paul’s Outside the Walls.
- The Holy Land: Pilgrims must visit at least one of the three basilicas: the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, the Basilica of the Nativity in Bethlehem, or the Basilica of the Annunciation in Nazareth.
- Other ecclesiastical areas: Local Bishops can designate a local Cathedral, Church or sacred site as participating in the Jubilee Year to be available for those who cannot travel as far.
The two additional ways in which the indulgence may be obtained is through pious visits to sacred places and through works of mercy or penance.

The Seven Churches Pilgrimage
The pilgrimage of the ‘Seven Churches’, originally conceived by St Philip Neri in the 16th century, is one of the oldest Roman traditions. It involves a walk of about 25 km which snakes through the whole city, reaching out to the Roman countryside, the catacombs and with stops at some of Rome’s magnificent basilicas.

Iter Europaeum
The itinerary of the churches of the European Union, in Latin, the ‘Iter Europaeum’, involves stop-offs at 28 churches and basilicas.
