A photo of the world’s oldest man with the rosary in his hands is moving the hearts of people around the world—Catholics in particular, of course, inspired by the testimony of faith of Venezuelan farmer Juan Vicente Pérez, who turned 113 on May 27.

The image of the elderly man holding his rosary appears in a video released by Guinness World Records, which recognized Juan Vicente as the current world’s oldest man on May 17.
