Lolo Kiko reminds everyone about the important bond between grandparents and grandchildren.
In his speeches, Pope Francis often emphasizes the prime importance of having a grandparent in a family. “Grandparents are so important in the life of the family to transmit the heritage of humanity and faith essential for every society.” According to the Santo Papa, even the Church has grandparents—a lot of them, in fact! Of course, the first and foremost would be none other than Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, whom Pope Francis calls, with much affection, the “wise grandfather at home.”
Then there are the cardinals. Pope Francis told them, “We must be like grandparents called to conjure dreams. The youth needs our dreams, because from our dreams they draw strength to prophesize and bring our tasks forward.”
