Vatican Insider
Welcome to Vatican Insider on yet another scorching weekend in so many parts of the world. I hope you are staying cool as you listen to the program this week, especially the interview segment with my two special guests. As you know, Sunday, July 28 the Church marks the World Day of Grandparents and the Elderly. Thus, this weekend and next, in the interview segment of Vatican Insider, I reprise a conversation I had with Catherine Wiley, grandmother and founder of Catholic Grandparents Association (CGA) and Marilyn Henry who coordinates CGA in the United States Both women are grandmothers and both have exceptional lives and stories. As you will hear, Catherine was truly the catalyst for this now annual World Day. For years, Catherine had an idea, a dream and, after many meetings with Vatican officials and a couple with Pope Francis, the Pope instituted The World Day of Grandparents and the Elderly!
