THE ORIGIN OF GRANDPARENTS DAY

grandparents day prayers quotes poems stories quotations index
The impetus for a National Grandparents Day originated with Marian McQuade, a housewife in Fayette County, West Virginia. Her primary motivation was to champion the cause of lonely elderly in nursing homes. She also hoped to persuade grandchildren to tap the wisdom and heritage their grandparents could provide. President Jimmy Carter, in 1978, proclaimed that National Grandparents Day would be celebrated every year on the first Sunday after Labor Day.
Grandparents are our heritage and are essential members of our families and communities. That is why a special day, National Grandparent's Day, is set aside every year to honor them. Here is an opportunity for you to spend some time with your grandparent, have fun, and create a project together that spotlights his or her life.

"Poem for Grandparent's Day"
Grandparents bestow upon their Grandchildren
The strength and wisdom that time
And experience have given them.
Grandchildren bless their Grandparents
With a youthful vitality and innocence
That help them stay young at heart forever.
Together they create a chain of love
Linking the past with the future.
The chain may lengthen,
But it will never part...

"O Compassionate God..! Thanks be to Thee for Thou hast awakened and made me conscious. Thou hast given me a seeing eye and favoured me with a hearing ear.

Protect me from violent tests and preserve and shelter me in the strongly fortified fortress of Thy Covenant and Testament. Thou art the Powerful, Thou art the Seeing, Thou art the Hearing. O Thou the Compassionate God..!

Thou art the Compassionate, the Merciful..." |
