Faith communities today face diverse challenges. We need everybody’s gifts in order to flourish – and this includes people with disabilities and their families.

But whether it is in pausing my frantic productivity to gaze for a moment at crisp pin-points of light in the night sky or in turning my attention to a neighbour who does not use words to communicate, I am “Learning how to say ‘Hallelujah’ from the ones who say it right.” Read More →
