May 16th, 2024

 

The webinar on the pastoral care of the elderly – organised on the occasion of the publication of the Holy Father's message and pastoral kit for the 4th World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly – was a crucial moment of reflection and discussion. 

Gabriella Gambino, Under-secretary for Family and Life, opened the meeting with a warm welcome: “The Message of the Holy Father for the 4th World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly,” she said, “brings with it a strong breath of hope”.

The meeting, held on 16 May in the Aula Magna of the Dicastery, was attended by some 80 people representing 60 episcopal conferences and 10 international associations.
