Older parishioners have much to offer a parish. They serve as spiritual anchors reminding others of the enduring nature of faith. The act as intercessors as their life experiences allow them to empathize with various struggles making their prayers heartfelt. They are the preservers of tradition making sure the parish remains rooted in its heritage and mission.
