Webinar DVD on Liturgical Spaces

Liturgical Spaces and Ministries

Access to Liturgical Spaces:
Welcoming ALL to this Place

This webinar addresses accessible liturgical spaces and church complexes.  Our experts will analyze and explore the concept of accessible liturgical space so it clearly proclaims that ‘ALL are welcome.' 

 

Access in Liturgy:
Making Liturgical Ministries
More Accessible to People with Disabilities

This webinar focuses on inclusion of persons with disabilities in the liturgical life of the Church. Liturgical ministers should reflect the cultural, ethnic, and economic diversity of the parish. They should also reflect the spectrum of disabilities found in any large community. Our presenters will look at the importance of parish leadership in assisting the faithful with disabilities in identifying and sharing their God-given gifts with others as the parish offers thanks and praise to God in its worship. They will also concentrate on the power of invitation to ensure that barriers of omission are removed and the rich gifts of all are accessed, assuring the community’s ability to reach its fullest potential.

Webinar DVD: Prenatal Diagnosis

THREATS TO THE LIFE OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES, PART1: PRENATAL DIAGNOSIS

 

This 1 ½ hour online training is on supporting families who receive a prenatal diagnosis of a disability or lethal condition.  As you may know, the abortion rate for these kinds of pregnancies is alarmingly high…up to 90% of mothers ultimately make a choice against life, including even Catholic women.  

A recent study showed that when support is provided to the expectant parents, the abortion rate drops significantly.  We know from experience that a priest, deacon, or pastoral staff member is generally the first person sought out following such a diagnosis. 

But oftentimes clergy and staff feel ill equipped to counsel these families and counter the technical and compelling language of the medical community.  This webinar will equip them to respond to these needs, and will provide an online toolkit with free downloadable resources with a faith-based framework.”
