Annual White Mass honors people with disabilities
Original: ‘Our Church is more complete:’ 17th annual White Mass celebrates dignity and gifts of people with disabilities
The 17th annual White Mass was held to celebrate the dignity and gifts of people with disabilities, under the message that the Church is more complete because of them. The liturgy is a Catholic tradition, often timed near the feast of disabilities-related patron saints, that recognizes those living with disabilities as well as their families, caregivers and advocates. Organizers say the celebration affirms that every member of the community contributes fully to its life.
Why now: The recurring annual liturgy draws attention each year to inclusion of people with disabilities in Catholic parish life.
