Bishop James Conley celebrated Mass Dec. 29 in the Cathedral of the Risen Christ in Lincoln to open the Jubilee Year of Hope in the Catholic Diocese of Lincoln. He blessed a jubilee cross made by Father Troy Schweiger, pastor of St. Patrick Parish in Lincoln. The cross will be placed in the sanctuary of the cathedral throughout the year, as requested of each diocese by Pope Francis.
