This December Pope Francis asks Catholics around the world to pray especially for people with disabilities. In his video of the month<\/a>The Pontiff focuses on those who, through ignorance or prejudice, suffer from a rejection \"that makes them marginalized\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the video, Francis claims that \"civil institutions must support their projects with access to education, employment and spaces where creativity is expressed\". The Holy Father considers that \"there is a need for programs and initiatives that favor inclusion\" and, \"above all, there is a need for big hearts that want to accompany\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the part of society, Francis notes that we must \"change our mentality a little in order to open ourselves to the talents of these people with different abilities\". As for the Church, the Pope warns that \"creating a fully accessible parish does not only mean eliminating physical barriers, but also assuming that we must stop talking about 'them' and start talking about 'us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this reason, the Pontiff asks that \"we pray that people with disabilities be at the center of the attention of the world's attention\". company<\/a>and that institutions promote inclusion programs that enhance their active participation\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
