Bishops commended the message of Pope Francis Do not cast me off in my old age, which the Holy Father has published for the fourth ‘World Day of Grandparents and the Elderly’ that will take place on Sunday 28 July.
Bishops said, “From the bottom of our hearts we thank grandparents and the elderly for passing on the precious gift of faith to our younger generations. This special day allows us to express our love and appreciation for grandparents and elderly members of families and communities in the most human of ways: by sharing our time and enjoying company. Our call to action is twofold: we encourage all to make time and visit grandparents and elderly loved ones and, in addition, to express on social media our affection for grandparents and elderly friends with posts using the hashtag #ElderlyandGrandparents.”
