The theme of the Fifth World Day of Grandparents and the Elderly to be held this year on Sunday, July 27 is: “Blessed are those who have not lost hope” (cf. Sir 14:2).
his verse from Sirach reminds us of the hope and blessedness found in those who trust in the Lord, especially in old age. In this Jubilee Year, the Day invites us to recognize grandparents and the elderly as signs of hope in our families and parishes.
