Pope Leo recently announced that beginning January 10th of this year (2026), a Franciscan Year of Jubilee will be observed, celebrating the 800th anniversary of the death of St. Francis. If Catholics fulfill certain requirements, the promise has been given that they can completely escape the punishment and/or the purging of Purgatory. Is this true or just another false, manmade, non-biblical, religious tradition?
