Show Notes

We invite you to join Clara and James, two young voices full of love, in prayer for World Day of Grandparents and the Elderly, instituted by Pope Francis. Their heartfelt prayer gently reminds us to honour our beloved grandparents. Let us also seek the intercession of Saints Zélie and Louis Martin, whose holy example nurtured a saintly family. Together with Clara and James, let us give thanks to God for our grandparents, grateful for the gift of their love, presence, and the life they have shared with us.
