    Hearing about our elderly and seeing, being there, touching and interacting with them is so different. You feel the real vibes. The humility,love and warmth. We need to continue with this exercise in our parishes. To God be the glory!!!

    Our catholic youths need more of these times for prayer with the elderlies. We need to learn and take a page from their books.
