People with disabilities

Persons with disabilities…are integral members of the Parish community. All persons with disabilities have the capacity to proclaim the Gospel and to be living witnesses to its truth within the community of faith and offer valuable gifts. Their involvement enriches every aspect of Church life. –National Directory of Catechesis, Paragraph 49

Every parish in the Archdiocese of Portland is called to be a place of belonging, whether in terms of hospitality, catechesis or religious education, physical accessibiilty, or mental health.
