THE THIRD WORLD DAY OF PRAYER OF GRANDPARENTS AND THE ERDERLY – 23RD JULY
To mark this year’s celebration, Pope Francis presents each of us with a challenge to foster “joyful and renewed encounter” across all generations, and to make a special gesture to reach out to grandparents and the elderly.
As part of this, Pope Francis has granted a Plenary Indulgence for those who visit their grandparents, or elderly or housebound friends, neighbours, or relatives. Visit the Holy See’s website at https://shorturl.at/cjmA9 to read more.
