2025 MARIST THEME

Our Marist theme for 2025 is ‘Pilgrims of Hope - Look Beyond’.

The 2025 theme, Pilgrims of Hope, invites us to journey with faith and courage, guided by God’s love. This love, experienced through acts of kindness, compassion, and generosity, gives us hope—a hope that propels us to make a difference in the world. We are called to be "living signposts of hope" through small or great deeds that uplift, restore, and bring light to others. Whether standing up for what is right, offering a listening ear, or simply being present for someone in need, hope inspires us to love deeply and act with purpose, even in the face of challenges.

 

As followers of Jesus, the source of our hope, we embark on a lifelong pilgrimage, looking beyond the surface to embrace life’s deeper meaning. This journey encourages us to see the world with open hearts and to live with trust, resilience, and vision. As we walk this path, we are reminded that we never travel alone—God walks with us, filling our hearts with peace and joy. Together, let us step forward as pilgrims of hope, ready to build a future of love and possibility.
