Bring Joy To The Elderly
World Day of Grandparents and the Elderly
‘Who does not remember their grandparents? Who can forget their presence and their witness by the domestic hearth? How many of us bear their names as a sign of continuity and gratitude!
… These and other gestures of love and faith are a manifestation of our gratitude to them. They gave themselves; they sacrificed themselves for us, and in certain cases also gave their lives.’
Pope Benedict XVI
‘God wants young people to bring joy to the hearts of the elderly, as Mary did to Elizabeth, and gain wisdom from their experiences… above all, the Lord wants us not to abandon the elderly.’
Pope Francis.
