Summary/Abstract: The article raises the issue of the solidarity with seniors and communication with them. These two grounds express Christian witness of love for them. Therefore – in such outlined perspective, the author presents the problem of love, which is not an order but the gift, the responsibility for seniors, closeness communication, communication of suffering and hope and prayer as the communication with God. Therefore, the solidarity and closeness communication develop the sense of responsibility, through which the daily affi rmation of senior is possible. In addition, the closeness communication is shown in the empathy, which is the ability to sense the emotions and feelings of other people. In the article, the author notes that solidarity in suffering is something deeply rooted in humanity than the disease. It invokes compassion and respect, but also triggers an intimidation. Therefore there is a need for participation of the heart, which helps to overcome the shyness and trigger a deep imperative of faith. So the issue is solidarity and the closeness communication skills.
