From 8:30 am to 9:30 am, it will already be possible to participate in a moment of reflection, with several testimonies related to old age and its deepest sense. At 10:30 am, Holy Mass will be presided by Pope Francis and one hundred elderly priests from around the world will concelebrate; at the conclusion, the Angelus will be recited as usual, at noon.
