History And Meaning of the Jubilee
The Term Jubilee, From the Hebrew Yôbhêl, Refers to the Ram's
Horn Used to Play Joyful Sounds.
(Leviticus, 25)
The Jubilee is the Celebration of an Especially Joyous Anniversary.
The Roman Catholic Church Celebrates the Anniversary of the Birth of
Christ. The Jubilee 2000 Has Been Declared a Holy Year. A Year of
Pilgrimage, Plenary Indulgence, Spiritual Rebirth and
Generous Love From God
and To God.
The Jubilee 2000 Symbol
The Symbol on the Jubilee Well Represents the Globalization of the
Christian Message:
The Central Part, In Dark Blue, Represents the Globe Over Which, As if
Wrapping It, Dominates the Cross.
The Five Doves, of Different Colors, Represent the Five Continents.
From the Center of the Cross Comes a Bright Light, Symbol of Christ
"True Light of the World"
As it is Indicated by the Words: "Christus Heri, Hodie, Semper"
(Christ Yesterday, Today, Always).
The Intertwining of the Doves Represents the Spirit of Unity Among the
Children of God and the Hope of Reconciliation Among the People.
The Cross is a Reminder that Christ Died to Save us All.
The Three Multicolor Lines That Compose It, Recall the
Mystery of the Trinity.
