Turn Debt into Hope - Relay of Hope PPT Presentation

Use this presentation to introduce the activity to a large group.

Relay of Hope

The Relay of Hope is a symbolic gesture on a global scale proposed by Caritas Internationalis as part of the Turn Debt into Hope campaign for the 2025 Jubilee.

Inspired by the Olympic torch, this candle-lighting activity reflects our shared mission to spread light, life and hope. Rooted in the official Jubilee theme of Pilgrims of Hope, the Relay of Hope will connect communities worldwide and symbolize our unity and solidarity in calling for debt and economic justice.

The relay signifies the Caritas family and wider global community journeying collectively to spiritual and social transformation. Each lit candle represents a call to action for debt justice and turning debt into hope.

When? Although it can be done at any time in the Jubilee Year, we are invited to especially organise a Relay of Hope during the Season of Creation between Monday 1 September and Saturday 4 October 2025. This will contribute to a wave of action around the world, forming a symbolic chain of unity and solidarity.
