I Am With You Always is the theme of this first year of a day to celebrate the older generations. This scene (click to enlarge) depicts Joachim's Dream by Giotto. St. Joachim, husband of St. Anne (mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary) and grandparents to Jesus. Joachim is being visited by an angel to tell him of his impending fatherhood after being childless into his advanced years. Today we honor and recognize the role that our grandparents and all the elderly play in our church and lives.

I thank You, Lord, for the comfort of your presence: even in times of loneliness, You are my hope and my confidence, You have been my rock and my fortress since my youth! I thank You for having given me a family and for having blessed me with a long life. I thank You for moments of joy and difficulty, for the dreams that have already come true in my life and for those that are still ahead of me. I thank You for this time of renewed fruitfulness to which You call me. Increase, O Lord, my faith, make me a channel of your peace, teach me to embrace those who suffer more than me, to never stop dreaming and to tell of your wonders to new generations. Protect and guide Pope Francis and the Church, that the light of the Gospel might reach the ends of the earth. Send Your Spirit, O Lord, to renew the world, that the storm of the pandemic might be calmed, the poor consoled and wars ended. Sustain me in weakness and help me to live life to the full in each moment that You give me, in the certainty that you are with me every day, even until the end of the age. Amen.
