Year of Faith

October 11, 2012 – November 24, 2013

The Year of Faith, as declared by Pope Benedict XVI, will run through November 24, 2013. During the Year of Faith, Catholics are asked to study and reflect on the documents of Vatican II and the catechism so that they may deepen their knowledge of the faith. This Year of Faith, is an opportunity for every Catholic to turn towards Jesus Christ, encounter him in the Sacraments, especially the Eucharist and rediscover the Faith and Church.

St. Anselm is a Year of Faith Parish site for a Plenary Indulgence. A letter from Archbishop Robert Carlson explaining how to obtain a Plenary Indulgence and a list of Parishes participating is available on our website under Year of Faith on the left side of our homepage.
