My pastoral visits to the elderly parishioners have proved to be a valuable reminder that I love them and think of them. Spending time with them has huge benefits for their health, primarily keeping them emotionally happy and physically young. Social isolation of these old people leads to cognitive decline, a decline in health and increased rates of infection and even mortality.
LET THE ELDERLY PEOPLE (OUR PARENTS & ANY OTHERS) KNOW THAT WE CARE ABOUT THEIR LONG-TERM WELL-BEING.
