World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly – July 28, 2024

“Do not cast me off in my old age” (cf. Ps 71:9)

” On this Fourth World Day devoted to them, let us show our tender love for the grandparents and the elderly members of our families. Let us spend time with those who are disheartened and no longer hope in the possibility of a different future. In place of the self-centred attitude that leads to loneliness and abandonment, let us instead show the open heart and the joyful face of men and women who have the courage to say “I will not abandon you”, and to set out on a different path”. Pope Francis

The Sisters of the Precious Blood in Hamilton honour our dear elderly Sisters.  Our Sisters in our infirmary are a vital part of our prayer life and community.
