“The International Day of Persons with Disabilities invites us to recognize that our frailty in no way obscures ‘the light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ,’” Pope Francis wrote in his message that celebrates the global recurrence. Established on December 3, 1992, by the United Nations General Assembly, the International Day of Persons with Disabilities theme for this year will touch on innovation and transformative solutions for inclusive development.
Faith, and the experience of God’s love, are not a prerogative only of a restricted group of people. Rather, Pope Francis affirmed how God’s mercy “makes itself known in a particular way to those who, instead of trusting in themselves, feel called to abandon themselves to the Lord and to empathize with their brothers and sisters.” This would result in a new sense of wisdom, capable of making us appreciate “all the more God’s loving decision to help us in our weakness.
The Magisterium of fragility becomes, according to the Pope, a way to enrich the Church. “Without vulnerability, without limits, without obstacles to overcome, there would be no true humanity.” This theme can also be found in the preparatory document for the continental stage of the Synod, which points to the lack of solidarity toward people with disabilities and calls for “new ways of welcoming their contribution and promoting their participation.
