Simeon and Anna: joyful elderly people   versione testuale
This year, in his homily for the feast of the Presentation of the Lord, Pope Francis speaks about what binds the different generations


In this homily, Pope Francis speaks of the stream of life with which the elderly are overflowing through the grace of the Holy Spirit. He refers to two important figures of the Gospel: the elderly Simeon and Anna, who were present at the moment of Jesus’ Presentation in the Temple and so had the opportunity to relate fruitfully with the young Mary and Joseph.
