Pauline Year

The Year of St. Paul.

Welcome to our Pauline Year resources page - celebrating the 2000th anniversary of the birth of Saint Paul the Apostle.

Pope Benedict XVI announced the Pauline Year during the Vespers Service in Rome at the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls on June 28, 2007. The Pauline Year, also known as "The Jubilee Year of St. Paul," begins on June 28, 2008 and concludes June 29, 2009. Our specialty store will be continually updated throughout the Pauline Year and we will be able to provide you with all the resources you need to learn more about St. Paul, the Pauline Year and to deepen your Catholic faith. St. Paul, as he said so many times and in so many ways in his letters, lived to show us Christ and help lead us to salvation.

Designed to celebrate the bimillennium of the birth of St Paul, which historians place between the years 7 and 10 AD, the Pauline Year, in the words of Pope Benedict, will include "a series of liturgical, cultural and ecumenical events, as well as various pastoral and social initiatives, all inspired by Pauline spirituality."

The Pauline Year began with a solemn Vespers Service on Saturday, June 28, 2008 presided over by His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI, at the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls in Rome. The Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I of Constantinople, spiritual leader of the Eastern Orthodox churches, joined Pope Benedict XVI for this special liturgy and has proclaimed a Year of St. Paul to be observed in the separated Eastern Orthodox churches as well.
